Virtual Server instead of full dedicated

I went with a package that provides equal CPU share, 512Mb RAM, 20 Gb disk space and over 250 Gb bandwidth (which seems to be very fast)! Transferring all the content over was relatively straight forward and so far the support has been friendly and efficient. They were kind enough to allow me to set up the new machine before simply transferring the IP addresses across - so no downtime!

So far I have been very impressed with the speed. My VDS appears to be hosting on a dual xeon machine with about 4 Gb of RAM. Response times have been fast and it seems to be coping with this site (which is by no means a monster), a few other sites and the associated emails for those domains. I would highly recommend 2host to anyone looking for a dedicated server or VDS like mine!

I'm currently running the usual LAMP environment that hosts some of my sites and my emails. It also serves as an experimental area for me too!
