arpnetworks.com的VPS我退款了，ping值最近达到了400多ms，而且VNC连接速度极慢，虽然他们的老大给了我1G内存，无限制流量，4个CPU核，我还是离开了，支持速度很慢，一般要1天才能回复，网络速度也不理想。
寻寻觅觅找到了6sync.com，正好他家新推出了KVM VPS，还优惠打折中，就买了款，吉利号服务器环境后就搬来了。最近忙于结婚准备，可能博客更新会比较慢，请大家谅解，VPS这家我测试了一个月里，速度和稳定性不错，特别是支持方面，回复速度比arpnetworks好多了，一般30分钟内就有回复，没啥问题的话就在这定居，不搬了，真的搬累了。。。。。。
雖然花了61小時才把我買的XEN+Gentoo 2008 amd64 VPS建立好，但是一拿到開通信就測試了一下分數還是蠻高的:

我買的是他們的WARP 2 Plan配置如下：
雙4核的Xeon E5520 CPU
35G Raid10硬盤
1G內存
900G每月流量
每周數據備份
用了TENOFF的優惠後每月24.26美元，這樣的價格還是很不錯的，穩定性嘛，我是覺得之前買的OpenVZ平台的VPS快一個月下來沒down過機，希望XEN也能一樣穩定吧，呵呵。
1.Order Date:2008-11-20
2.My Plan:
XEN 768M WHT Special Plan:
CPU:Dual Qual-Core Xeon 5402
Disk: 40G RAID10
RAM:768M
Bandwidth:500G/M
HyperVM VPS Control Panel to Access to Manage my VPS
3.Pricing (10/10):
I got this plan for only $15/m,very cheap
4.Sales & Setup (10/10):
I have used their vps for almost 6 month.when I bought the vps @ 2008-11-20,their website name is uesd to www.starkservers.com，I think their CEO & Admin Jason Kuberka is a nice guy,before I order the vps,I talk with him with the email,after no more than 12 hours,I got my vps.
5.Network (10/10):
My VPS is located @ LA DC，very nice link speed to East Asia,of cource to Shanghai,China.you could ping 67.220.203.9 to check the network,I could download with full speed with my 2M ADSL,it’s great.
6.Reliability (7/10):
I promise I got a 5 month nice service & speed with mysite www.mydays.org,but this month,I got a lot of troubles with them,vps down,wrong billing & hypervm 500 error,system restore failed,I don’t know how to say now.they spend 3 days to fix the hypervm url 500 error,my billing error is still not fixed…
7.Uptime (9/10):
In 5 month is good,but this month was not very stable,have some double days down.
8.Support(8/10):
Jason Kuberka always there to answer my question,sometime would delay,but still will fixz your issue ASAP.this month they had more delay,I don’t know know why.
The Finall Overall Ratings = (8/10)
I still recommand them as your xen vps choice,because I belive Jason could fix all the issues,you should give them a try:)
I got a notice plan with these guys yesterday & I’d refund it,when I login the hypervm,I see the poor cpu setting,so I sumbit a ticket to them,responds very quick,but just tell me waiting & waiting,04/12/2008 01:46 I sumbited the ticket,04/12/2008 14:52 13 hours! they break their promise to solve the problem in 6 hours.
Shikhir Arora respond a ticket like a final answer:You are ordering a $8 plan. All you get is 0.2ghz per core. That’s equal for your price.
$8 isn’t cost much for you,also for me,but many other vps providers here’s equal share cpu means give you all the cpu on one server or they will tell you they limit the cpu,you AD here just tell us a lie,a lie.
Think or your’ll got just a poor cpu’s vps with this company
兜了一大个圈子，买了一大堆品质恶劣的VPS：
像vpsempire.com，稍稍晚交两天费就要加$10逾期费；
servebyte.com的VPS 128M Plan限制400MHz的CPU，系统运行速度简直龟速，发ticket退款无人问津；
hooks-pc.com的VPS 128M Plan,就是一个world-of-computing.com的代理，么用了几天，这个公司站点被黑了，我的VPS也就down了，发ticket无人问津（最新消息刚刚恢复，晕）；
thenynoc.com的$5 VPS看上去不错，4核Xeon CPU，512M内存，1TB流量，可是他的Console Access不能用，万一失误设置防火墙被挡，只能发ticket求助了（我还是喜欢DIY自助解决，再说这家的服务支持很慢，觉得不爽）；
connetwitch.com是一家新兴的英国主机提供商，他提供的4核Xeon CPU，512M内存，200GB流量的VPS只要 £4.95 ，非常划算，而且用起来满稳定的，唯一缺点就是没有美国的VPS连接快;)
VPSMedia的VPS和Linode比起来看起来不错，内存：384M VS 360M，硬盘：15G VS 12G，还是Raid10 VS Raid1的，流量比Linode少50G，这到没什么，关键的关键是CPU同样是4核的Opteron，速度根本没法和Linode的Xeon比，Gentoo Linux下编译起软件来爆慢。不划算。
Linode的VPS没话说了，如果不是预算资金有限的话，他是不二选择，现在在Linode和Connectswitch之间徘徊，$19.5 VS £4.95(大概$9.9) ，要差一半呢，在这用钱的节骨眼上，好难选择啊，为难ing……
本人开始全面收缩除生活必要开支以外的全部支出。
现在$4.95的VPS完全够用:
QuadCore Xeon 2.50GHz X2
5gb Hard Disk Quota
50gb Monthly Bandwidth
128mb Guaranteed Ram,256mb Burstable Ram
1 Private IP Address
Gentoo Linux stage3 amd64
比之前9.95欧元:
Intel Quad Core CoreDuo2 2.5G
10gb Hard Disk Quota
512M Guaranteed Ram
1gb Burstable Ram
500gb Monthly Bandwidth
1 Private IP Address
Gentoo Linux stage3 x86
实用的多，原来的VPS资源多的只是浪费。
为了未来两个人的生活必须省之再省啊。

看来还是VPSMedia的VPS分数高点，哈哈，不过我还是更喜欢linode的VPS，因为他的超POWER的VPS控制面板，爱死他了:D
Just 1 day,I feel so sad with them.I think the company is just 1 man running.I bought a small plan on 7.2,the price is good $6.99 for 256 RAM 30G Disk 160G bandwidth/m.Everything is good after they spent 7 hours to setup my vps,not bad.
I spent the whole days of 7.3 to rebuild my vps from centos to gentoo & update it,& the bad thing from this moment is begin.
everything is ok during the update time,but I forgot the my openvz server’s kernel is 2.6.18,I updated my linux-headers to 2.6.25, it causes I can’t fininshed emerge -e my sytem,so I reboot it,but it die & never running again,I do anything I can do,reboot in the HyperVM,& ssh to the console access,but nothing help.
so I submit a ticket to them,at last they just rebuild my vps back to centos,do nothing for me.I know it’s the unmanaged service,& if the vps I can rescue it,I won’t sumbit a ticket.
After that,I make a mistake,they don’t have a refund for vps,but I request it,all right,no refund is ok.I say I’ll make a review for my vps,but they sad I can’t paste the ticket to the public space because of the TOS,if i do it,my vps will be terminated immediately.i don’t care.I feel sad with them,so spent $6.99 to let everyone know the company & the unreaonable TOS,it worth
here is the ticket,I’ll let you know:

I am sorry but per our TOS we do not offer refunds on our VPS services, as well as our VPS services are unmanaged. I would also like to note that you ordered your server with Centos 5, then you changed to Gentoo. We are therefore not required to support your operating system.

You ordered your server with CentOS5, that is what we installed — that is what we support. You then switched to Gentoo, we do not support that.

其实他们的Standard-Root Plan一直用的很好，即使在我用了2个月决定不续费的时候，8个CPU核XEON，512M内存，1.5G Burst Ram,用Gentoo Linux编译软件像飞一样，哈哈。只是没有一点售后的话，还真不放心。于是过期两个星期后他们终于关了我的VPS。
之后在WHT闲逛，发现了Crissic Solutions,他们在搞7.4促销，Double Resources + 30% OFF! 看起来很超值，虽然知道是小公司，很可能也是ONE MAN RUNNING的，可是贪便宜还是买了他们的SMALL PLAN，具体的plan，可以看这个帖子http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=704058&highlight=Crissic+Solutions%2C 。过了11个小时才拿到帐号，马上rebuild Gentoo.服务器配置性能还是很不错的，CPU是4核的XEON。
可是我升级时候忘了服务器的内核是2.6.18，我升级的时候linux-headers升到了2.6.25，于是后来升级软件包的时候一直出错。我想重启一下后好一点，可这一重启就废了，进HyperVM的Console Access也解决不了，于是ticket了一下，由于太晚，不知不觉就睡着了，第二天，收了到了回复，什么都没解决，只是问我现在解决了，我一看就明白了这公司就他一个人，也没啥技术水平，后来的一问一答，他丝毫没有解决我VPS无法起启动SSH的问题，后来竟然REBUILD了，要知道emerge -e sytem一个Gentoo在一个256M的VPS要花多少时间啊。于是乎我要求退款，他说我们没有退款保证，害，这也怪我，当初在WHT看到有人问过。我这一气就在WHT发了个REVIEW，具体见 http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=705345&highlight=Crissic+Solutions%2C 。想不到的是回帖的都是批判我的，说我为什么当初买的时候选的是CENTOS不是Gentoo,他们是UNMANAGED Service，不负责软件问题解决，越看越火，最后索性要求ADMIN关了这贴，真是倒霉啊，遇到了这种公司，的当初在TICKET里我说我要把TICKET的内容全部贴到我的REVIEW里，可是他们说这样做违反了他们的TOS，你的VPS就会被直接关闭，想不到后来真的这样做了，白白浪费了$6.99。
算了，不和这种公司计较了，后来我一口气买了2个XEN的VPS，VPSMedia的STARTER PLAN和Linde的360 PLAN。现在的空间就是架在Linode的360 PLAN上的，经过一番优化，速度很不错，呵呵。具体两个VPS的REVIEW请听下会分解，哈哈
For the same reason as I paid for web-wide-hosting’s plan,it’s very cheap.Paid $13.95 you got 200% of their 8 Core Xeon CPU usage,20G RAID 10 disk,512m RAM & 1.5G burst,the bandwidth is a not very much,just 100G/m
1.Setup
Setup is very fast,I got my vps after 5 minutes I paid.
2.Support
I think they just have email support.I sent one email to ask the ticket system,they reply me that it will be online soon (but soon is when,they don’t tell me)
3.Network
Very fast,just 190ms ping result from my vps to my locale Shanghai,China,no packets lost.
Now the vps is running well,I’m very satisfied.but I don’t know if it could be continued,because it is a small new hosting commpany & their website design is not very professional.I’m worried about that.
here is my website url,you could test it
http://www.mydays.org
