Cheaper than Rackshack?

Are there any other places that offer dedicated servers for just a little (don't need like a free one or anything) cheaper than RackShack that is pretty good quality?

cheaper per month or cheaper setup :confused2

There are sub-$100 dedicated server offers. I couldn't recommend one place over another (nor can I think of any off the top of my head), however they do exist. There are also VPS (Virtual Private Servers), which are similar (you still get root and can install anything you need for the most part). These plans are generally $50 on up.

tera-byte has a vps for $69 a month with no setup i think 2 gigs of space and im not sure of transfer.

I think RackShack is the cheapest.
They offer 400gb.. I don't think other companies can off this for 100 dollars a month..

I think these might be of interest:

http://www.eservers.biz which is a reseller for:
http://www.tranxactglobal.com
Also, worth a mention is:
http://www.webreseller.net

Rackshack is cheap, but, in many ways, you are getting what you pay for. If not less.

eservers.biz have skyhigh setup prices, and rock bottom monthly payments. averaged over a year it is cheaper than RS. I have never used eservers.biz before, so I cant comment on performance.

You basically have two choices economy or performance and service. if you want cheap go with RS or eservers.biz i doubt you will score better than that unless you have your own server to colo somewhere.

If you want performance there are countless other places to check out

i heard there is a german one which is cheaper than rackshack, but i forget the url :mad:

http://www.4webspace.com is an alternative.

Actually eservers.biz servers are much better in quality that RackShack.net, thats why they have a higher setup.

RackShack's P4 special is just insane though. P4 1.7GHz, 1GB RAM, 2 60GB HD, and 600GB data transfer for $139. No one can compete with prices like that.

Perhaps you may find a provider that has an old box laying around that you could get for a low price, but you'l be lucky to find much of anything cheaper than RS.

The thing with those is that they sell out so fast. :(

How is p4 as a server processor?

here is a cheap german one

you only pay the transfer, not the server

P4 as server = ----

If i had the choice, i'd choose dual or even single P3.

P4 is a performance chip, nothing else.

But still, for that price I'd take anything. Even seeing as they use Cogent, the bandwidth itself is still worth more than what they're charging.

it loads for me now too!

I haven't seen a dedicated services cheaper and rackshack, most I've seen under $100 are co-location.

IF I convince my boss, I can colo for free :cool:

BTW, my work doesn't have the dual t3s anymore, we now have an full duplex OC-3. :D

whats a co location ?

co-location is where you house YOUR OWN server at somewhere with mucho bandwith (hopefully) and you pay them for monthly for powering your server and providing the bandwith to YOUR server etc

Isn't that similar to reselling?

No....

reselling is reselling your paid space of a server from a company.

Co-location is that you send in your own server(you can send in a peice of crap from your basement) and have it hooked up to the companies connection.

Can I know some VDS providers?

But it was still at the top of the list of threads in this forum so how can you dig it up? It was already at the top. :chinese2:

Dude not many people post in this forum so stop arguing

Exactly my point. So how is it possible to dig up a thread here?

Even if you don't want to consider it "digging it up" it is like if a court where to bring up a law suit that is 2 years old and have another trial. A mod should just close this

Well, No one is actually posting anything relevant so this tread should be closed.
