Shame about the HDD, doesn't that cause performance problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have chosen ssd storage but I have like 1.4Tb of family photos I archive online so ssd storage would be hella expensive lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That server above is from tier.net but most of my servers come from hetzner. Trying out the US location as we speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use iCloud with 2TB of storage to back up everything else as I trust them more to make good backups of their servers than I would haha. 8 hours ago, MNG said: That server above is from tier.net but most of my servers come from hetzner.

Currently using Namecheap as they're pretty cost effective compared to the competition for both VPS's and dedicated servers. Only had a couple of issues when their whole network had bandwidth issues but apart from that it's been smooth sailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really had to use their support usually always good for me but they have finally opened a data center in the US. Migrating a few sites over this weekend to test the speed and such on a cloud server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
