    Untapped locations?

    Haven't seen much from Canada lately. I would prefer to see Asia/Pacific but Canada would work out better than another US Location IMO.

    Best way to keep sites loading fast while keeping them secure?

    You should also take a look at the other resources you have such as the network.  Unfortunately VPS Hosting brings in a lot of "unwanted" neighbours who can "hog" certain resources such as the CPU and bandwidth. It's up to the provider to ensure everyone has a fair share of these shared...

    Software RAID vs hardware RAID

    Both definitely have their ups and downs, price being the main factor. For a VPS Node in production, I must say that it's best to fork out that little bit extra to save yourself in the long and there's a few reasons behind this. Write Back Caching or BBU basically allows pending writes to be...
