OVH is not really unmetered. I would suggest you keyweb or hosting IE...
OVH to OVH is only 1 GBPS ovh to Internet is 100 mbps.. So unless your swarm is inside OVH's datacenter you won't get 1 gbps.

looks like my otions will be keyweb or hosting IE then, thanks for heads up on the OVH being only gigabit on "internal traffic"

ovh gbit only helpful on scc/sct and no where else.. hostingie wud be good on most sites as it can stretch beyond 11-12MB i guess

hostingie is keyweb reseller who hunts down seedboxes with predudice

I also hear their network is crap and speeds suck (they are hosted ingermany)

A real gigabit unmetered costs about 800 euro and up / month (as your talking 330,000 GB of xfer in one dirrection )

You can get a gigabit server with 2 500gb disks a dual core proc, 2gb ram and I think 2x100mbit connection with 5TB bw from i3d (nl) for 99 euro

it might only be 1x100mbit but i think if thats the case the seccond 100mbit is 10 euro/month and upgrade from 100 to 1000 is 15 euro/month

To max out a gigabit you need about 3-4 10K rpm raptors in hardware raid 0 (but the r200 chasis can only take 2 drives)

I have 2 raptors in raid 0 (600gb total) and my max speed seeding a pack both at scc and sct at once was 75MB/s (ovh boxes with like 6 drives or 2 ssds have gone up to full gigbait due to so many ovh boxes)

sO if your using 2 regular disks dual 100mbit might be your best bet (max speed woulld be 22MB/s) which you can't expect much more from 2 regular disks in sw raid 0

edit; check webhostingtalk for i3d's web promo and email them

damn, thats hardcore @ 800 euro/month
i presume those servers are based in (FR)OVH

they dont hunt down seedboxes, as the user says above, Ive been using them for months and months. Keyweb does hunt them down, but not hosting-ie. Their speeds are fast as OVH and unmetered (im sure if you used like 30TB they may say something)

many thanks, price is certainly better than 800euro
Dedicated Rabtor Pro Lin 888 Renovacio PRO looks like a great deal
