Life Cloud Solutions Dallas, Seattle, and Amsterdam Fully Managed VPS Hosting Test and Review
Thanks to the Life Cloud Solutions team, we recently tested their Fully Managed VPS Hosting (SSD Cloud 4 plan) in Dallas, Seattle, and Amsterdam. Each server packs a powerful Intel Xeon E5-2670 v2 2.50GHz processor, 2 cores, 4GB RAM, 75GB SSD storage, a 1Gbps connection, 10TB traffic, and both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
We used Yabs and a basic benchmark to measure performance, a global node test to check network speeds worldwide, and a global ping test to measure latency. We also tested media streaming capabilities with the Media Unlock Test, connection quality with the CloudFlare Internet Test, and website loading speeds with PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.

Conclusion
We tested servers located in Dallas, Seattle, and Amsterdam to assess performance across different regions. Each server features an Intel Xeon E5-2670 v2 2.50GHz processor, 2 cores, 4GB of RAM, and a 75GB SSD. Our tests focused on I/O speeds, network performance, and overall processing power using Geekbench 6.
Disk performance varied significantly between locations. The Amsterdam server delivered the best I/O performance, averaging 260 MB/s, which is acceptable. However, the Dallas and Seattle servers lagged, averaging 117 MB/s and 141.3 MB/s, respectively. These speeds fall below our expectations for SSD performance and could be a bottleneck for disk-intensive applications.
Network speeds were generally strong across all locations. Each server delivered close to the advertised 1 Gbps connection, with download and upload speeds exceeding 900 Mbps in Dallas. While Seattle and Amsterdam also showed good network performance, they didn’t quite reach the Dallas server’s speeds. This difference likely reflects network conditions and proximity to test locations rather than an issue with the servers themselves.
Geekbench 6 benchmark results revealed consistent single-core performance hovering around 500-550. This score indicates standard processing power suitable for everyday tasks and less demanding applications. Multi-core scores varied, with Amsterdam reaching 990 and Dallas slightly lower at 972. Seattle trailed behind with a multi-core score of 793. These results suggest some performance fluctuations between locations, which could be due to background processes or server load at the time of testing.
In conclusion, Life Cloud Solutions’ SSD Cloud 4 plan offers decent network performance, but the inconsistent disk I/O speeds raise concerns. While the Amsterdam server showed acceptable disk performance, the Dallas and Seattle locations fell short. The processing power is adequate for standard tasks, but users requiring high disk I/O or heavy multi-core processing might need to consider a higher-tier plan.
