after running a dedi for about a year and a half i analyzed whether to upgrade the dedi or to go colocation. after doing some number crunching and back and forth i found for what i really wanted the colocation was in fact cheaper. with the specs i have although i cant confirm it as the dedi page is getting revamped but i was looking at least double the monthly rate than i now enjoy. yes i had a good deal on the dedi from a sale but i was never confident with a celeron and i was needing ram. After the initial investment i now enjoy 4x the ram, 4x the hdd space. raid 1 and a dual core processor with a 250 back up hdd. Not bad for an extra 20 bucks more than i was paying on a dedi that i got because of a sale anyways. as to the bandwith , i havent come close to using it anways and if the future shows an increase needed, then obviously i have generated the added income to warrant it
