    Another dedicated server web host I have kept an eye on is ReliableSite.net. And recently reinforced the interest as @Null and @Matt have stated that The Admin Zone forums moved to them for their dedicated server hosting as well.

    They have awesome WHT forum dedicated server offers and DDOS protection (20 Gbps Protection) as well. Only they are located on US East Coast, New York so for Asian region traffic might have slightly higher latencies.

    oh you already using or used them before ?
    sweet will definitely take you up on the offer given the chance as I do server/forum optimisation consults for many private clients and part of that consult service is capacity planning and server hardware configuration and web hosting advice :)

    Always good to have coupon discounts too (y)

    Very tempting. Which to choose ;)
    I can't find any info on their server locations or any bandwidth test sites that I can try to ping.

    I talked to Matt and it just happened that they have a sale on the link you posted that has the config that TAZ used.

    Quick question, if I order a server with 2 SSD drives (one for the database), what I have to do to have centminmod install mariadb on the second SSD?

    Or would you suggest to get a bigger SSD for both? Pro/con?

    yeah NJ located...

    well for specifics for server recommendations really beyond the support provided here on the forums :)

    But for MariaDB just specifying different datadir in /etc/my.cnf and moving the /var/lib/mysql contents to a new directory to 2nd SSD should do it usually. Or just mount 2nd SSD as /var/lib/mysql if you want.

    Personally, I'd just do 2x SSD raid 1 if on a budget or 4x SSD raid 10 if it's financially feasible..

    very nice, definitely a powerful setup considering it would be faster than old dual Xeon E5620s ! (y)

    make sure you get the Dedicated KVM Access with Virtual Media option as you can install your own distro/reinstall OS :)
