    Bandwidth Usage

    Even with both Canadian + US Netflix, not everything I want is always there - but most of that usage is via friends and family, sharing with at least 12 or 13 folks by now (so 30-80GB/mo per person, which isn't too crazy). Usage is heavier this month since my younger cousins aren't in school and...

    $34.95 100mbit Unmetered Colo or $64.95 with 1 Gigabit Port, Seattle, SSAE 16

    Server and drives arrived last week, it was all setup in under an hour (based on UPS telling me it arrived to Incero sending me IPMI details). Excellent experience. Network is great. Love it. IP pricing is a bit rough on this promo - but colo + /29 at $40/mo is still a steal.

    Bandwidth Usage

    Seeding linux ISOs uses a lot.. can push ~25-30TB/mo between everyones favourite french dedi providers. Plex Media Server (for friends & family) uses a bit (400GB to 1TB). VPN is 150-300GB/mo. Websites, staging boxes, etc. are only a few hundred gigs a month combined. Backups use maybe...

    Private Network

    It's definitely not a requirement for me, but a nice to have. May attract some higher end clientele who require multiple frontend and backend boxes.

    Private Network

    I use the private network with BuyVM. Between the shared box and VPS, and previously when I had a storage box there for backups. If you have it, I will use it. Especially if you mix the network between product lines as Awmusic12635 said. Any hints at specs/pricing with this new product line?

    $34.95 100mbit Unmetered Colo or $64.95 with 1 Gigabit Port, Seattle, SSAE 16

    Thanks for the help, contacted Dave and bought a box outright. Don't like debt. Ordered the deal today. Gordon & Ryan have been super helpful and walked me through everything. "A+ would buy again" I already know Seattle network is solid, from VPSDime & Wable stuff there.

    High Storage Backup Server

    It seems to vary a ton between the stuff I have there and friends who also host there. Guess it depends a lot on the rack you're in and how many other people are eating up the bandwidth - as i'm guessing they only have a 1 (maybe 2) Gbps drop per rack, and then what that's connected to upstream...

    BuyVM.NET / BuyShared.NET - Shared - $5/year | Resellers - $2.00/month! Dedicated IPv4! SSD RAID!

    I have a weekly backup running, but it has to do a full account backup, tar and upload. Is there any way to use CPRemote or a similar backup system but we can each enter our own offsite ftp/sftp/rsync details? So when the normal system backups run, they can also push them offsite - ideally just...

    Modern methods to stress test a VPS?

    For testing caching/web server config, I usually hit it with a Blitz.io test.

    $26 DEDICATED SERVERS ★ ONE WEEK ONLY ★ 4 CORE XEON ★ FREE IPMI ★ UNMETERED BANDWIDTH

    How close is close? I'm considering an HE.net tunnel to the Seattle 6-to-4 pop, since it's only ~0.3ms away - but native would be preferred.

    Servermania Ad Stalking Lowendtalk.com and Lowendbox.com Visitors

    It's a ridiculously effective advertising method, and I think Adroll's minimum is $20 or $25/week. I'm under the same username on the LES forum - shoot me an email if you want some help/advice on setup.

    This is indeed the answer if you have problems being tracked. Again, I run multiple Adroll campaigns for clients that spend 10s of thousands a month on this stuff - and I run ABP.. Re: providers being pissed off if ServerMania tags a user first - that doesn't mean much. The way inventory works...

    Servermania Ad Stalking Lowendtalk.com and Lowendbox.com Visitors

    So you're talking about the morals of a corporation and not the legal ramifications of their actions, correct? Nothing I see them doing is breaking any rules - it's totally fine to run private ads outside without a network, anyone can do direct sales. Tagging other sites, that allow you, with...

    So.. I don't get what this has to do with BuySellAds customers.. Even though I don't think anyone should be wasting money on non-retargeting display ads anyways. As a marketer: retargeting/remarketing ads are AWESOME. As a consumer: I run Adblock. Re: Adroll rules. I do not believe this is...
