Just curious as how many servers you have? I have one dedicated server with all my sites on it that went down for about 20 hours last weekend with the Cali power outage.

All my sites were down and I made nothing that day, got me thinking about moving some over to another server so if something like that happens again I at least have half of them up.

is it better to have couple smaller servers or one powerfull server...

**GeorgeB** · 07-28-2006, 11:23 PM

1 dedicated and one home server.

I'll need a server for a project in production though - but not for a few months.

I have recently upgraded and now have 2 dedicated instead of 1.

**Sobering** · 07-29-2006, 12:57 AM

None.

I think that it also depends on the person who is running the site.. If it is not a must to have all the specialties of a dedicated server or vps then why get one

true.... one of my sites i actually pay for a shared hosting plan so i don't have to worry about it... the others push a lot of bandwidth and dedicated is the cheapest way to go
