I have decided to move operations over from Vultr VPS to dedicated. I am having NO problems with Vultr. I just know dedicated is where you want to be

Anyone hear of or used Nocix (formerly Datashack)

Just wondering if their prices are too good to be true

Also . . .

Is there such a thing as "too much"? I mean is my dedicated Fusionpbx instance going to be better with 32 ram as opposed to 16? Does the SSD HD make a difference in the voip world as opposed to SATA?

Any insight is appreciated.

Vultr have dedicated hardware.
Imho more ram cant hurt.
I think ssd is the go. Expensive for storage but if you are going to dedicated hardware then allow to replace them at some point.
Just my 0.02.

I run dedicated on an OVH server with a quad core Xeon, 32GB of RAM, and 480GB SSDs in RAID1 for about $120 a month. Totally worth it.

thank you for the input. When you said it's totally worth it do you mean in sense of having less problems because you have so much RAM? I guess the processor was a huge plus. also I was looking at ovh but I could not find any servers in the United States. Everytime I search the one on their page it seems like it was all overseas.

The price difference of going 32Gb of RAM vs 16Gb of RAM was marginal so that's why I went that route. My operation isn't huge but I built my infrastructure to scale so I wouldn't have to mess with it down the line. I started on a VPS as well but eventually went dedicated to avoid any potential problems down the line from using shared resources with a VPS.

Here is OVH's US website: https://us.ovhcloud.com/
