Dedicated server from Hostrocket?

[Kier]

I'm currently looking for a new dedicated server, and came across Hostrocket.com , who seem to be offering a dedicated server for $175/month with $400 setup fees...

Is this too good to be true? It seems to be dramatically below the price of any of their competitors. Does anyone have any experience of their dedicated servers?

Time is of the essence here, as my current host will be unavailable in less than 4 weeks, so any info/opinions here would be greatly appreciated.

reread the hockrocket's dedicated server page - i believe US$175/month is NOT including bandwidth costs... if i remember correctly


so once bandwidth costs are included it is about the same as other servers..

http://hostrocket.com/v2/dedicated.html

1u RackMount WebServer
AMD Athlon 900 Processor
256mb SDRAM
40gb EIDE Hard Drive
RedHat Linux 6.22
Apache WebServer
Billing/Support Manager
24/7 Emergency Support/Monitoring
$400/Setup
$175/Month


additional costs

10gb Transfer Block - $50/month
50gb Transfer Block - $200/month
100gb Transfer Block - $300/month
10 IPs - $5/month
Bandwidth Overage - $4/gb
Daily Account Backups - $50/month
Control Panel / WebHost Manager Package - $25/month


I am not with hostrocket, but my server is a Dual p3 866, 512mb with 18gb 10k scsi hdd and it costs less than the above with 100gb/month

hope that helps

Hi Eva2000,

I ordered their plan 3 dedicated server and added 512 Mb ram. Will move the sites next month. I can't wait!
Thanks to Martin who told me they are very good!
