if you like following WHT dedicated hosting offers one fun thing is to just see how long lasting (or not) these providers are.

Despite supposedly being 4x faster and 4x cheaper, these dedicated hosting offer guys come and go like moths circling a burning flame.

Same thing with the s3 competitor file hosting companies. I haven't followed this space recently from hotfile / filesonic etc etc. All supposedly way cheaper than S3 - but boy do they disappear in the night at times.

On the flip side, there's no shortage of providers that have been around since before AWS was a thing.

For example, the quote that I found was from a provider I used over a decade ago (no affiliation), and who have been in business since 1999.

I just checked my old provider pair networks.

Processor 8 Cores HD 240GB SSD RAM 16GB $311 / month

This is not that competitive with m5a.4xlarge reserved for one year.

64GB / 16 core machines - good modern gen cores

Those are managed dedicated servers, where they'll install and maintain software for you. It's an entirely separate class.

And even if it wasn't, the existence of a single expensive dedicated server provider wouldn't disprove parent's claims.
