Hello,

I am curious to know what people are looking an RDP. Not a VPS.

Note: The difference between RDP vs VPS

RDP: You (user) and other users in the same OS, sharing CPU, RAM, Port, HDD (Not space but I/O). Shared IP. In other words "use what you can get"

VPS: You (user) alone on your own IP. Share an equal amount of CPU, RAM, HDD (both space + I/O). Share Port. In other words "dedicated usage shared with no one else but you"

The reason I ask is because I see a major trend & interest on "RDPs" for $30 for 100GB but all I see is providers that are offering SATA disks w/ or w/o RAID. If any software RAID or even if it does have HW RAID doesn't have BBU or cache.

Some of the applications (and similar ones) to them are as follow:
WinRaR
FileHost Uploader/Downloader Managers (Including but not limited to major file hosts RapidShare, FileServe, FileSonic etc)
& Sometimes Utorrent/Deluge (etc)

The reason I ask is what else do people look into an RDP provider (or what are you using yours mostly for). I could probably offer more high end specs (such as the drives + raid) that most providers do not overlook. I wouldn't need to "reboot" a server to get fast speeds (connectivity or winrar usage). Thats cheating users into thinking that method is the solution.

Your 2c appreciated. Heck I am looking forward on selling 100GB 15k RPM $30 a pop that will outbeat any SATA drive here.

Note to customers of mine: If such decision comes into place where I start providing "RDP" services. The server would be different and/or another server specified just for RDP usage and nothing else.
