@ikoula have some pretty decent offers in their discount section

They want more ID than I can provide.

So, OVH's 20% price rise has royally fucked me in fudge tunnel the has made my Plex box unsustainable. It's only a £7ish price hike, but as I'm only running this for friends and family there's a limit and I have to be strict.

The spec of the current server is way OTT anyway, so my minimum requirements are more modest.

CPU: Something that that runs a PassMark in the region of 6k

RAM: 4GB

HD: 2TB

BW: 100Mb/s

Data transfer: 4TB (first month only), 2TB thereafter

Location: Europe, close to the UK the better, but not actually inside the UK.

IPv4: 1

IPv6: 1 address would be nice to have, not absolutely essential though

Price: £30/$40

Obviously aware of the usual Kimsufi shenanigans but I haven't time to sit there waiting for the right model to become available. Online.net can go and fuck themselves.

Let me know what you have!

I'll let you have access to my Plex server in France - 500 GB of content currently, 6 TB free space (the rest is reserved for other purposes), just pay $30 (Canadian which is about ~ 20 GBP curretly) per month, and I'll give you R/W access, etc.

Specification:

CPU: Intel Core i7-980X @ 3.33GHz

RAM: 16 GB

HDD: 12 TB (note: 6 TB of it via NAS)

BW: 1Gbit (20 TB max)

IPv4: /28

IPv6: /48

I appreciate the offer, but I want to run my own server.

For some reason, I'm hesitant when it comes to Germany.

Where have you seen that price?

I've had my Plex servers with Hetzner for 3 years now, running on Auction server i7 (2x3 TB) and it's never missed a beat

mikho said: https://servdiscount.com/en/ has this server for ~£32/month. Cheaper if you go for longer terms.

Doesn't look like that's still there, but there's something similar for €30. I assume VAT is to be added to those prices?

VAT will probably be added, totally missed that.

Never bought from them, only saved the link for when I need a cheap dedi.

Got any experience with them? Pricing looks interesting.

Nothing against Hetzner themselves, it's the actual country. Now I think about it, I'm not exactly clear where this reservation came from.

You should be OK, so far I have around 16TB hosted with them between the two servers and additional storage boxes and touch wood they don't seem to give a shit.

It's probably the language:

I understood Germany women to be aggressive and somewhat hairy, at least based on most of the pornography.

What has been the production date of those documentaries? I assume something around the 70ies and 80ies... ;-)

Dunno, most of them appear to have been shot on relatively recent smartphones...

Well, the world is changing so fast around me that you might be right. I should leave my cave more often...

Absolutely. That "there are women without tentacles" hypothesis is just childish!

I dread to think what sort of grumble the British public prefer, probably something to do with taxis.

It would be like anime isn't actually real.

@Nekki Would you agree to be called back ?

Yeah, I just don't have any valid ID (passport expired) which prevents me from getting validated.
