Hey guys,
Looking for a new web host.

I've been through the OC Host Reviews but not found anything too brilliant.

Had a quick scan through the stickies and couldn't find anything suitable either.

Criteria must meet the following:

Dedicated Server
Windows OS
Unlimited Bandwidth Usage (or very high cap anyway)
120GB HDD space (probably more, not hugely concerned on this at the moment)

Cheap(ish) monthly cost

edit:
SQL Server as well, forgot to add this
Preferably 2005 or later

Found the catch, Windows Server 2003 Web Edition, means you can't put Microsoft SQL Server on it :(

I wouldn't say no until you've contacted them - they might be able to sort something out for you. Worth a try, even if they say no!
 
I've used them for shared hosting, didn't have a problem with them for about a year, but that was before pipex bought webfusion..
 
I have a server from Register1 who I rate extremely highly - they were very flexible in the specification of the server and provide fantastic support, but for their best deals you have to sign up for three years (and pay in advance, which might be prohibitive.)
 
Register1 are decent but I personally have issues with paying for anything three years in advance. Also, if your dedicated server is business critical you will need to look at Register1's parent company serverstream who are more expensive as register1 is a low entry service in terms of SLA’s etc.

Other providers I would recommend are: 2host.co.uk and gyron.net. Have used both companies for a few years and they are exceptional.
