Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Dedicated Server : wich one should i get can someone help please?

[David-1]

I need to move my site to a dedicated server and can't decide what to get.

from.dialtoneinternet.com
RaQ 2 Platform
Mips 250 MHz
32MB DRAM
4.3 GB Hard Disk
Single Ethernet Port
16 IP's
100GB of Traffic


or this from rackspace

500 Mhz
64MB RAM
10GB EIDE
RedHat Linux 6.2
75GB/Month
2 IPs


I would only be using it for 2 domains nothing more booth using around 32gb a month both runing through anti-leech cgi, I have 2 image archive sites but everyone says that cgi really slows down a raq but im new to all this and have no idea of how to set this up so thats why im looking at the raq.....

Well if you weren't using the anti-leech cgi i'd say the RAQ might do, but since you are, and its run EVERY time a image loads (trust me it adds up) I'd suggest going with the 500mhz box from rackspace. But definately go for the RedHat box. Although if you do its not going to be as easy to setup your accounts.
Unless they include some kinda manager program

(Side note, I could do the same type of custom box. It'd probabbly be a bit cheaper i'm sure espically on the monthly, I do apologize if you think its a sales pitch I woulda emailed you but no email, so if you would like to chat about it email me or contact me anyway below.)

Again I apologize if you think its a sales pitch, I'm just trying to give him options.

I'd get the 500mhz box myself, my site will be running a P3 600 w/ 512MB RAM.
