Default Looking into the Ability to going to a Dedicated

I know there has been some topics here recently about dedicated servers however I'm kind of in a unique situation. I am looking into the possibility of going dedicated but need a very big server for bandwith reasons. Something over 300 gb's which kind of scares even me. I also need something fast because I'm averaging 15 seconds on loading on my server with cable. Yet I can't let cost get too high. And I want to stay away from Rackshack at all costs. This would strickly be for my forums but any advice?

Although I can't personally recommend them, seing N9ne is almost obsessed by them, www.nocster.com seem to fit that bill. A few others have recommended www.racknine.com, but I'm not sure they can offer such high bandwidth usage at a reasonable price tag.

What's your budget?

Edit: Just saw you posted in that other thread as well, but I stand by my suggestions.

Over 300GB/month??? What do you host? How much traffic do you get? How many users? How many online at once?

Heh, he must have streaming videos or something.

300 GB/month for forums only is the highest bandwidth usage I have ever heard. We're using a puny 1 GB per day.

He has a forum which has at least 200 online at almost peak times. Peak times hits over 300 users online. There's thousands of posts per day. 30,000 members on the forum.

Martin, the host is nocster.com . He already knows I recommend nocster to him, i've already shown him the valentines day sale servers.

TheMayhem, are you going to pay for this server, or is Aaron?

Nothing wrong with RackShack mate. Been with them coming up 2 years now, 4 boxes. No problems.
