Web Hosting : Moving from Shared Hosting

Hostgator and Bluehost are our best webhosts and godaddy.com is the best domain registrar.

Presently, my site is hosted at ICDsoft business shared account
And my site is hosted on “two Quad-core Xeon processors, 8 GB RAM and a multi-terabyte RAID 6 disk array.”

I am planning on moving away from a shared account.

My site is an ecommerce site and my budget for a new server is around $100-$150 per month.

Should i transfer to a VPS or Dedicated server ?

I need a Full/complete managed server, either it be VPS or Dedicated. I dont want to get involved in setting up, securing etc. the server. I would like a Control Panel, be it Cpanel or any other with Linux System.

Also, my main concern is, how much bandwidth should be good for an ecommerce site with around 20,000 unique visitors per month, around 500,000 hits per month
