I'll post this under a new thread, I need 60GB transfer a month
200 MB website that gets a lot of traffic.

I would like an uptime guarantee, and PERL, oh and under £100 per month.

Any idea's or experience's of Hosts that can do this ?

I think a "virtual server" from Tera-Byte might suit your needs. For $69/mo you'll get 2 GB of disk space, and 50 GB of bandwidth. Additional bandwidth is quite affordable (I haven't checked the exact price, but I think it's around $3/GB?).

You can find more details at http://tera-byte.com/vir.html

Hope this helps.

Do a search on this forum; in general they're mostly receiving positive reviews. Their CEO also posts here sometimes.

Says on their site $4 per GB extra
which would make an extra $40 for having 60GB

Probably still cheap though.

I would prefer a cap at 60GB any1 have any info on a cap, I hear it slow the site down ?

At the end of the day, I'd prefer 2 know what I will have 2 pay.

So 4 them it would seem like $109 for 60GB which is fair enough.

300GB for $99 is that not too cheap?

Anyone used rackshack ? and at this time why are the first 2 options unavailable ?

Generally if you don't know exactly what you're doing, and don't have experience maintaining a Linux box, I wouldn't recommend getting your own dedicated server.

I don't have experience with a Linux or dedicated box

More of a "Control panel" man :-)

However Rackskack charge sale tax- heaps of threads.
And large set-up fee
