I don't want the same issues that Vern seems to have ... am I getting the right package?

Please, explain more detail what do you mean.

I subscribe to the outage thread and Vern seems to be mentioned often as you guys are usually upgrading, etc. I should have re-worded that post.

The only reason I am moving to a dedicated server is to not have the delays and downtime as I have a couple of pretty focused clients on my hosting. I am assuming this move will take care of the delays and load issues. Correct?

Also instead of the Intel Package 1 I think I have something better here for the same price that has a backup drive already which is something you are going to want / need. It is a dual processor machine, the drives are a bit smaller but the same or better RAM and 2 processors should be a better performing machine unless you really need the extra disk space.

Can you email me a link to purchase the one you mention above?

Vern is a different Animal. It is the primary node for all the VPS servers.

As for specs, I am digging them up for you now. There isn't a link to order, its a "special" so we will have to set it up for you manually.

[rlhanson]

Sounds good!
I want to give my client's a heads up so if you can let me know when the "manual" set-up to pay will be done I can schedule my e-blast.

Take your pick:

Dual Intel Xeon
Primary Drive: 120 GB
Backup Drive: 250 GB
RAM: 2 GB
$199/mo

Dual AMD Opteron
Primary Drive: 120 GB
Backup Drive: 120 GB
RAM: 4 GB
$199/mo

This includes cPanel and management.

Sorry, the second one was an AMD Opteron not Intel Xeon. I have edited the post above.

[rlhanson]

Dual Intel Xeon
Primary Drive: 120 GB
Backup Drive: 120 GB
RAM: 4 GB
$199/mo

How often will you schedule the backups?

AMD Opteron not Intel Xeon

What's better?

[Matt]

They are about the same I guess processor-wise. Its a matter of personal preference. If it were me I would get the one with the extra RAM.

[rlhanson]

That's what I was thinking too. Okay, so same choice.
