I need a ~100-200GB small VPS that I will use as a low usage seedbox (I've had two threads regarding it - I sure as hell hope this is the last).
I see Ramnode offers 128MB/80GB/500GB for $15/yr and 256MB/120GB/1000GB for $32/yr.
Crissic does offer a better deal at $15/yr and gives 100GB/512MB/1000GB but they do not allow torrents and are quite explicit about it which is good.
Now I would have bought the RamNode's 80GB or 120GB disk boxes as they fit my need and budget just fine. But they have restrictions:
- Torrents can only be used on VPS based in USA
- It has to be limited to 20Mbps
2nd is sth I can live with as my usage are going to be minimal (I just need to keep my private tracker a/c's alive and download a few torrents a week/month).
But 1st is sth which is very difficult because I would practically be not be able to download to my home PC (or upload from it) at decent speeds. I have tried many US servers from home and they all somehow give me pathetic pings, on the other hand servers in EU, esp. Netherlands, have historically been awesome. I raised a ticket regarding a possible exemption and a prompt response in negative came, so that's there :-)
I was just wondering if any known providers are gonna offer anything comparable in EU? I need to buy it in a day or two. My KS-2 is expiring soon and I won't renew that. (I need to keep it inside a low budget because it will be low usage and I want to keep it long term - that's exactly my need is).
PS. I have received an offer from BuyVM but that falls outside my budget; VPSDime doesn't have small boxes; @drserver had one to-good-to-to-be true 250GB/512MB/1TB deal for $15/yr once, but I guess it was an one time thing (no, I would bought it just for storage and not for torrenting as they don't allow p2p iirc), so @drserver if you have another server where RAM is finished and you want to put the disk to good use I am all ears. So I knew only about these three established LEB providers who allow P2P. Anything else out there? If I don't find anything I will half heartedly buy RamNode's box (I was at checkout today morning).
Also, no offence to anyone in general but if you feel like saying "it's like begigng for free VPS" like a jerk then please shut up and go home and try to wrap your head around the fact that I have started with an actual offer example.
