    * VPS Needed in Chicago or New York

    Hello everyone,

    I came here looking for a good vps for my new site to move to since my current host does not understand the importance of uptime.

    I've looked at a few offers in the "VPS Offers" forum but still not have found anything to my liking.

    Anything in these lines
    VPS needs to be in East Coast or Chicago.
    Space: SSD 50GB or 75GB on raid
    RAM: 2-3GB Swap 1GB
    BW: 1TB
    Connection:1Gbps
    Cpanel is a must.

    Budget $20-40

    If anyone can help it will be gladly appreciated.

    Thank You

    The problem will be the amount of space that you need for this budget. If you also need a cPanel license (which can already be ~$15), this will be hard.

    I suggest increasing your budget or lowering your specs.

    Great. It looks ok now. ~$25/month for 2-3GB and 75GB disk. Most hosts don't do 3GB though. If you need that contact them for a custom plan.

    Otherwise, you can also check out http://www.lowendbox.com/ for these budget offers.

    Probably doesn't include cPanel at this budget.
    If you really concern about uptime, never go with any host who can offer you together with cPanel.

    Curious to know who your current host is. I can only think of a few hosts who offer cPanel and SSD VPSs.

    What is this supposed to mean? Almost every (reputable) VPS provider can offer discounted cPanel licenses. What does that have to do with uptime?

    I'm experimenting with a SSD account at ChicagoVPS right now. It's a small account, with just 10 gb disk space, but it's telling me what I want to know.

    To be honest, the SSD drive isn't making a lot of difference for what I do. I imagine it might make a significant difference with a database intensive application, but for web & email hosting I'm not seeing any difference to speak of.

    But ChicagoVPS offers reliable & fast service. As Shib pointed out, search for ChicagoVPS ate lowendbox.com for terrific deals.

    This is the weirdest suggestion I have ever seen.

    Are you saying it is bad for a host to offer a vps with cPanel?

    If yes, please explain.

    As I see one provider has been recommended by many people so why not to try them?

    I have seen ChicagoVPS at WHT , I haven't use them ever but I have seen some great reviews about them.

    I'm pretty sure ChicagoVPS is a banned WHT company. That should speak volumes.

    I currently have a VPS with Urpad.net in New York and it's great, located on the awesome Voxel racks!

    I keep reading they are banned, but the reason they are banned should be known so someone can make a judgement.

    Yes, that would be fair. But nobody has alleged that the ban had anything to do with the quality of their service.
