TEST IP please and how much for cpanel??

TestIP: 66.96.90.12
Test file: http://66.96.90.12/10meg.file

Cpanel is $35/month

Are you on HiVelocity's premium metered server network or unmetered server network?

(the premium one has MCI, Level 3)

Metered servers are on the premium blend while the unmetered is on their unmetered network.

Any Posibilty to USE Secondy Sata Hardrive or Single BIg sata harddrive???

We currently do not support SATA on the Xeon servers. On the Opteron servers we do support SATA drives although do not recommend them for uses beyond backup or mass storage. Please contact us for pricing.

Do you support Virtuozzo Licences?

We do not license SWsoft applications at this time.

How does a Xeon 2.0 compare to a P4 3.0 or an AMD 3000?

The xeon and the p4 have close to the same cache and core logic so the performance of the 2 are about the same clock speed for clock speed although all p4 core based xeons have hyperthreading enabled.

However one of the major differences between the xeons and p4 cores is the xeons are certified multiprocessor. Comparing a P43.0 against 2x2.0 Xeon is not much of a comparison especially on multi threaded applications.

Actually I was thinking about P4 3.0 v.s. Xeon 1x2.0. The first server in the offer above only has a single Xeon processor.

So I guess going by your first paragraph, the P4 3.0 is better than the single Xeon 2.0 due to the higher clock speed.

On raw cpu speed, sure the 3.0P4 is going to outperform a single Xeon 2.0.

Although start comparing the servers as far as the ATA IO you have on the P4 board vs SCSI found on the xeon board or the ability to use upto 12 gigs of ram vs 2 gigs for most desktop boards and your benchmarking gets a little more complicated.
