Looking to share dedicated server with someone
I am interested in getting a dedi from either ReliableSite or WholeSaleInternet but will only use 30% of the processing power of the server. I'd be interested in splitting it with someone through KVM VPSes.
I am looking at either getting the
(according to their ad)
Intel E3-1220
32GB RAM
240GB SSD
1Gbit port with 20TB Transfer
Linux OS - Windows available
5 Usable IPv4 IP Address
/64 IPv6 Address Block
$42 per month (which we'd split the costs of) from WholeSale
or
Intel Xeon E3 1245v2
16GB ram
250GB HDD
1gbit port 10TB BW
5 IPs
Linux/Windows OS
for $60 a month from ReliableSite.
I'd be running a game server or 2 with my share. If anyone is interested in sharing it, please PM me or reply below

Pff, a dedicated server is a dedicated server. KVM VPS for ~$30/month is not worth, and neither is that tiny 240GB SSD.
Not even if you'd get 16GB of ram and 2 full usable cores?
I can't tell if you're joking or not. If you find a trusted partner to split a dedi with, getting 2 dedicated E3-1245v2 cores (4 threads), dedicated 8GB RAM can be well worth $30. Of course, the question is finding this trusted person to split resources with. Assuming you find one though, it's a great deal if you want to be sure you have dedicated resources. (We all know that any low-end host that "doesn't oversell" still oversells a little bit)

I'd like 2 orders of incinerated money, and a side of frozen PayPal accounts
I guess it could be worth it, but it would be a matter of trust like you said (X snoops in Y's VPS, etc)
If you add 10 bucks to your budget, you can get

I might just setup Tcadmin on it and offer gameservers to people. Anyone interested in this idea?
I would find a friend/someone you know in person. Not worth trying to share with some random guy on the internet to save $30/month.
Get the cloud server from BudgetVM.
"Sharing" a server is like sharing a car with a sibling- it just won't work.
I need something with ddos mitigation
Read the offer page.
And yes, it is expensive.
DDOS protection is expensive in general, excluding OVH (whose ddos protection is crap..), Psychz, and others
Server is in LA, so if you're bothered by the high costing DDOS protection, find a Psychz provider who is in LA and do a GRE or other tunnel.
If you want OVH's crappy protection, add on another 2 bucks and go with soyoustart. Note that it is only in europe, BHS datacenter will cost even more. If your using Windows, throw some more money at OVH or use joodle's template.
If your using Linux, and want gobs of ram, use https://www.ovh.com/us/cloud/instances/
WholeSaleInternet offers 2gbps and ReliableSite offers 10gbps ddos mitigation.
< sarcasm >
That must be why the entire WholeSaleInternet goes down every few months.

That being said, you get what you pay for. DDOS protection is not a one solution fits all thing and requires work, tuning, and response by the DC to ensure things keep running. You buy cheap ddos protection, your likely going to get crap ddos migitation.
