uhm, how do you test your 10Gbps connection that your server has? I'm wondering as I've never thought of how it may be different from testing a 1Gbps line. So, basically, share me what you would do to test and verify that your provider actually connects your server to a 10Gbps line.

Lol you are one of the people who gets trapped in those 2Gbps and 10Gbps shit tricks :facepalm:

To use anything above 1Gbps whether in linux or windows, you need to have SSD Harddrives or Raid 10 else you cannot have your port speed pass 1Gbps no matter what you do :|

So get a SSD HDD or Raid 10 on server and then only you can attain or test anything above 1Gbps

Now that's what I call, worth a thread. I totally did not think of that. I understand that problem but it was totally not in my mind the last couple of days. I ordered 1Gbps and in my network in task manager, it's saying 10Gbps. Probably they know that I can't even go pass the 1Gbps, so they put whatever they want? xD haha. I think that's the reason. Thanks a lot for pointing that out. Maybe, I should just upgrade to 1 SSD and take the advantage of 10Gbps? xD

PS: I thought RAID-0 also gives you over 1Gbps speeds? Are you sure it's only RAID-10 and SSD's?

wget something and see the speed

I wish I could but I'm on Windows, but then I'll need a good source like a super fast server to really see its full but anyways, shub has resolved my doubts. My drives are 7200 rpm SATA-II drives and not in RAID so I would not pass 1Gbps even if I'm connected 10000Gbps lolz.
 
this good topics coz many vps/rdp service all write 1GBPS but can't do provided the fact
meybe someone can write how to test the vps speed use linux command or anything related
 
Who is your provider lol ?

And for those of you saying speedtest, I would'nt really go by what speed test says, some of you may not know or forget your testing the download speeds & upload of a server that could be used for other things.
 
The only way you can test your max speed is downloading a test file from a DC in same location as your server, like if server is in NL download a test file frm Worldstream, if in USA download a file from fdcservers and so on. :|

You will get max 100-125MBps no matter you have 1Gbps, 2Gbps or 10Gbps unless you get Raid 10
