Hi all:
I am currently running a managed server from the school (not at the school) as part of the school's business and enterprise status. The site is based with Easyspace but I need more storage as I am thinking about doing my e-mail on the server as well. With 750 students plus staff I would need 10-15GB of free space and the Easyspace device is only 4GB of which nearly 2 is the OS. I would like to use a UK company but they seem really expensive in comparison to what must be yanqui ones. Has anyone any experience they can share?
Providing you know what you're doing I'd recommend bash.sh (http://bash.sh) they do very well priced dedicated servers - very well priced indeed. And they're good. Located in Telehouse Docklands (and maybe Redbus now as well) they've got good connectivity. As I said though, you have to know what you're doing - the servers aren't managed. If all your traffic is going to be UK based ask about a "peering" connection, should mean you wouldn't have to pay for bandwidth. -- Ed. Schizophrenia beats being alone.
