KVM VPS or Dedicated Server 16GB RAM and above, with SSD
Hello,
I'm looking for a KVM VPS or a dedicated server with 16GB RAM (or above) with SSD storage.
Location doesn't matter to me.
Planning to run Docker on CentOS or Ubuntu.
My budget is around $200-$350/year. Willing to pay quarterly/annually.
Edit* I have increased my budget.
Thanks!

So, you want 16GB, SSD storage, and can pay less than $200/yr, huh?
If you find something, let me know. Even the cheapest 16GB
VortexNodeHetzners cost more than that.http://contabo.com
That's just mean.
Why?
I've never heard of anyone praising Contabo. I can't imagine a KVM VPS there with Docker under it. Might as well be trying it on an 8G Kimsufi with 24GB swap?
I wasn't exactly praising it... they are most likely the only ones matching his criteria, hence I mentioned them. Especially after your first comment :-P
@Ympker checked them out lately and wrote about his experiences on here. Also I think @TarZZ92 jumped on that train and has a box with them...
Might not be glorifying but neither really bad I think ;-)
I know you weren't. I was politely insinuating that you were suggesting them just to get the cheap OP to learn a lesson.
After Kimsufi, almost anything is good.. except DbD. My god are they awful.

I see. You get what you pay for, of course... but it's saturday morning here... not really switched on mean-mode by now.
I have increased my budget. I'm not too sure if I would be able to get one at that new price range.
How much storage would you need?
Is SSD a hard requirement? I can probably arrange something in $14/mo range with 16GB RAM but HDD.

This is within budget with 8CPU (dedicated threads) + 24GB RAM + 120 SSD/960 SAS.
The SAS is as fast as the SSD.
When will you need this? I am awaiting a delivery on some new dedicated machines with SAS drives, but can possibly swap it out for a small SSD for you in Bulgaria. Might be able to fit in your increased budget with a dual quad core Xeon dedicated.
Try SYS-IP-1S or E3-SSD-1 here:
https://www.soyoustart.com/ie/essential-servers/
+1 definitely recommended
powerfull boxes and fast SAS, also keep in mind price includes 19% german VAT which you might get deducted, depending on your location and business...
also gets cheaper if you take it for 6 or even 12 months, english page: https://www.netcup.eu/bestellen/produkt.php?produkt=1572
(also get 5€ off your first order, use coupon 36nc14892246259 or take one from my signature ;-) ;-))
We can may work on something! PM you.
I'm looking for around 80-120GB SSD, but SAS works as well if I could not find any better ones.
Yes I'm looking for one with SSD.
This looks good to me. Will shortlist this one.
I don't have a specific timeframe. Probably by the end of this month. Can you quote me with the specs / PM?
Thanks everyone!
DBD is very solid.... until you need support. I had to bump my tickets and P.M. them on a forum before they replied.
Otherwise, my DBD server is very stable and it hasn't gone down once. Network speeds are pretty good as well. Certainly was a steal for $17 a month!
Tell me about it. Their network sucked hard.
On top of that, they lied through their teeth for 2 straight weeks about having initiated a refund for a cancelled dedi, until I gave up and directly spoke with PayPal and my CC company.
They finally initiated the full refund for a dedi that I had paid for a year, after I confronted them with my findings and threatened to initiate a charge-back.
I made a mental note to never pay for a dedi semi/ annually after that.
We can do KVM VPS 16GB Ram , 4xCPU , 60GB SSD , 2TB BW . Oregon USA , Price : $240/year.
16GB RAM on a KVM VPS for $168 p/year?
This is a whole new race to the bottom, that is 0.0102 p/MB p/Year
For reference LES works out to 0.0201 p/MB p/Year and that is OpenVZ with no SLA, Support or IPv4.
The power of LET, praise the Byte Gods.
Yep. Took over 2 months to get a second IP from them, and they backdated the charges to January. It's only $4, but they sure as hell didn't earn it.
If it was an I5/I7 I'd have returned it within the first month and demanded a pro-rated refund, but an E3 for $17 (that I prepaid), welp..
I've never had a problem with their network- just their service.
Sounds like one of those kimsufi dedis that @exception876 is reselling.
No those are VPS on Soyoustart OP-SAT-5 servers (128GB RAM for 60 euros).
That netcup 24gb ram rootServer is unbeatable at about 250euros/yr prepay (for non Eu customers - no 19% VAT).
It comes with 8 Dedicated cpu 'Threads' .
If you absolutely need SSD and more than 120gb of it, push budget higher
alternative 1: Ultravps.eu ssd cloudserver at '24.36 euro/m' (pre Vat)
if you order in their LAX location, you get newer E5 cpu; other locations are mostly Intel westmere X56xx cores (quite decent performers still )
Their storage infrastructure is based on ZFS and KVM is provisioned on top of it.

(pm me if you'd like to use my affiliate code to give me some Internet love: I'll reply in under 5mins in US timings )
alternative 2 = 29.9 euro/m
Hetzner kvm has way more SSD allocated(400GB for the 16gb ram plan) .
https://www.hetzner.de/us/hosting/produktmatrix/rootserver-produktmatrix-px
They also have Disk snapshots feature (5 for this plan) and a FAST network.
Confused with your V-dedi lineup then: https://www.wishosting.com/order/main/packages/hybrid_servers/?group_id=5
Those are definitely those online.net winter deals and those kimsufis that were cheap
