Help the environment, move your server to RackForce.

Coal powered electricity produces 100 times more CO2 equivalent per KWH than Hydroelectricity according to the Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology. 70% of all the electricity in North America is generated from coal and other greenhouse gas (GHG) producing sources. This means datacenters located in places like Texas, Florida, California, Colorado, Virginia and West Virginia are contributing roughly the same amount of CO2, into the atmosphere, as the average SUV for every server running there.

RackForce's Dedicated Servers are powered by clean hydro-electric power, and that's just the beginning of RackForce's green advantages! Another reason to choose RackForce.

10Mbps = 3300GB @ unlimited 24/7 usage. I think you should know better than mis-advertising.

Actually, it's ~3300GB incoming + ~3300GB outgoing at 24/7 maxed out port usage, though I doubt you will constantly max it out, which is why 5000GB is a bit more accurate.

Did you miss the fact that it was a duplex connection - that's 10Mbps in each direction or a theoretical 3,164.0625 GB in each direction per 30 days (2592000 seconds) for a total of 6328.125 GB traffic but of course there is tcp/ip packet overhead of ~25% which leaves you with 4746.09375GB or as the ad says almost 5,000GB.

If you think for a second that all those companies out there that promise you 2000GB or whatever, are only counting egress traffic you need to do better research. In every case it is a combined traffic figure of ingress and egress traffic.

Your apology is accepted in advance.
