Unlike OVH, server4you use nasty 5400rpm hard drives on their low end. I actually am waiting for someone to come out with a low end server with a small SSD drive. I need performance not storage.


RAMnode has been pretty good for very fast mid-range SSD VPSes (watch their Twitter; they have 30% off specials all the time). SoftLayer also supports SSDs but they aren't low end, for the most part. I'm a happy customer of both but an employee/beneficiary of neither.


Check ServerBear for better comparison/coupon/benchmark etc.

RamNode best coupon actually offer 31% off all the time! I'm using LEB service extensively as I'm offering budget Managed WordPress Hosting.

Performance wise, RamNode is among the best LEB provider along with company like BuyVM, ServerDragon and Hostigation.


If I'm going to considerably pay more, I am still better paying OVH more. I'm thinking of getting this bad boy: http://www.ovh.ie/dedicated_servers/eg_64g_ssd.xml
