VPS or RDP ?

[viruz99]

Hello - What is the difference between RDP and VPS ?
Also What Advantages of VPS or RDP over Rapidleech ?

I need one ASAP for downloading 200gb ~ 2000 files ( unpack - rename - create thumbnails - repack - reupload )
Which one would be most appropriate ?

I have been only using Rapidleech previously

VPS allows you to create RDPs, it's virtual dedicated server. RDP is a server that already has an OS installed and ready to use. If you know nothing about server management, use RDP instead.

Also this thread should probably be moved.

I'm gonna go with VPS - assuming its about a windows vps vs win rdp. You can install anything on vps but on rdp, you have to contact admin to install a program for you. So if you have lots of programs that you are using under windows go for vps...

If you are on a tight budget, go with linux vps and just install gnome :D

I highly recommend Windows RDP!

Masterb56 - On the RDPs I have used (including the ones I sell) you have complete control over the server, including the programs installed. You even have root permissions!

Viruz99 - If you want a decent RDP virtual machine, see my thread at -
