I have come across http://www.fdcservers.net, and saw their dedicated packages are so cheap. Seems too good to be true.
Anyone using them ?
comment on it.
Also comment on http://tophosting.com .. Their dedicated packages also are so cheap :)

Try this link:

As for tophosting.com, they look a little iffy. Their colocation page says "...use your own hardware for as low as $75/Month with 20 GB of Average Bandwidth per Day (64 kbps)." 20GB per day works out to more like 2000kbps -- 64kbps is actually 20GB per _month_! Their dedicated server page says "If you need more than 1Mbps/1024kbps (320GB/Month), please check out our Rack Farm Package.", but they list dedicated server packages up to "81GB (256kbps) AVERAGE Transfer per day (about 2430GB total per month)" (the math again doesn't work out between the kbps and the GB/month). I sent them an e-mail (if they'll really give me 20GB/day of bandwidth for $75/month, I want it!), so I'll see what they say.

30 minutes isn't that bad. They only have one tech in the data center at night from what I gather. I've seen a free bandwidth monitor somewhere, can't remember the name at the moment.
I'd recommend prepaying with fdcservers, as somebody else already mentioned, they can be very generous with upgrades if you do :)

It looks like tophosting.com uses http://www.cybercon.com/ here in STL so check cybercon's site and you can see their bandwidth pricing to compare.

I've had a server with fdcservers.net for a few weeks so far. No complaints. Setup was quick, no complaints about hardware and connectivity either.
