Server Complete Dedicated Server

NodeBytes

Dedi Addict
I've been looking for a good dedicated server. I stumbled upon this deal on DSD - http://bit.ly/1ifd9zQ and I bought one to check it out. So far I have had a great experience. It is fast and the network is pretty good.

The server was provisioned within 12 hours on a custom order and had the ipv6 allotted within a couple hours of requesting it.

Specs:

  • Intel Core 2 Duo 8300
  • 4Gb DDR2
  • 80gb Sata II (Upgradeable to 500gb for $5/month)
  • 100mbps unmetered
  • 1 + /30 ipv4
  • /64 ipv6 upon request
Location - Jacksonville, FL - 800 Water St.

Now for the obligatory tests...

Overall, it's a great server that's been rock solid. I plan to keep it for a long time and maybe upgrade to one of the Xeon processors soon.

If you have any questions or would like me to run any tests let me know. :)

Looks like a pretty good deal, might grab one myself!

What are you planning to use it for?

I've already got a bunch of VPS's around the country, $25 a month buys a lot of little machines! So not sure I really need a dedi, but so tempted :)

Yeah those Core2Duo boxes are real nice, I picked one up myself. Pretty fast. I upgraded to a 2 TB disk on it too :)
