I'm looking for a VPS or server for $10/mo (max)
I come from a Scaleway server (C1, BareMetal SSD Cloud Server), but I had more problems and a poor support service, which made me want to cancel my account that I created yesterday. The purpose was to create a seedbox to download the files and send them to my account in Google Drive, however the torrent client only supports torrent that contain only files, if they have folders and subfolders the torrent does not work lol. I followed this tutorial.
Anyway, what I want is to be able to download torrent (or http) files and be able to upload to my Google Drive account. I think an already configured VPS is the best way (or the simplest).
I search for an provider with this specs:
Cores: any
RAM: 1-2 GB
Storage: 50-100GB
Disk Type: any
Bandwidth: 1TB at least
Port Speed: 100Mbps at least (Good stable Network Connection)
Location: US, EU...
Thanks in advance!

Obviously, if you are downloading copyright material and get abuse reports your service will be removed and the price listed is the unmanaged price.
He is more likely looking for a seedbox and not a vps he needs to setup himself... sounds more like scaleway support is to be 'bad' because of not helping him with that, LOL
(maybe simple language barrier though)
Could be, I have updated my offer to reflect that.

At first I wanted to test a small seedbox, but as I said, I had problems with torrents that contain folders, I did not understand why and the support much less knew how to tell me why. Another problem that happened was with the SMTP port blocked. I got in touch with the support and they said that I would have to take a photo of the identity card and a photo of me holding my identity card ... so much difficulty for only €3?!
I'm already ugly enough to be framed in a photo ID, and they want a picture of me holding my ID card?! Double kill (lol)? Not even my profiles have a real photo, if it was something important, that's fine.
That shouldn't be a problem... Which OS & which client?

See that's what I was talking about. You complain about the need to verify your identy on a cheap 3€ vps while at the same time expect their support to help you with torrent problems on that very same cheap self-managed service? Hmm.
What are you going to download and seed? If your content are copyrighted materials then I think most VPS providers here will not allow it.
I think Scaleway is an un-managed server, which means, these kind of questions are not appropriate! And Scaleway support doesn't have to answer them.
Setting up your seedbox could be hard sometime, if you need something pre-configured and easy to use, just buy a seedbox, I think it's more suitable in your situation.
There are providers out there, which will setup a seedbox for you on a dedi w/ dedi IP and such ... .
With $10/m you can get a Windows VPS. just install some torrent client on that box. I believe installing torrent client on Windows is just a matter of next next next finish. Shouldn't be that hard.
@Aidan
OS is Ubuntu and client is ruTorrent
@williclarkam
It's not a copyrighted material, just a torrent I had created with video lessons about android, with about 30GB. But my upload is very low, and I have no availability to leave my computer on all day, so to try to avoid losing the torrent, I want to help in seeding and make a copy to my Google Drive account with rclone.
Developer tag only needed to post in offer section.
How about waiting for a Kimsufi KS-1 or KS-2?

And which one do you recommend, as I was analyzing this option and arrived at Aruba Cloud and 1&1. Well, so far the VPS that is as first in the list is the LetBox. More opinions and options are very welcome. Thank you so much, guys.
I've got a KS-1 going away on August 7th..
Get a KS-1 and install Quickbox.
If you just want a simple seedbox (rutorrent + ftp access), get an account with SeedboxWS - 100GB storage plan is 2 Euros/mo.
I thought that users can post in threads w/o the provider tag? (just not in the offers section)
Never used window vps before so cant comment that much. I used $1/m Aruba. So far so good, 100% uptime. If you are not comfortable using command line client, you should go for GUI Client. You can always install GUI on Your VPS. Either WIndows or Linux. I myself has dedicated gui vps for downloading stuff and upload it on Google Drive / Youtube. Although I am using linux. But doesn't really matter whether it is Windows or Linux, as long as the GUI is UP, you can easily manage / upload them using your mouse.
You though right. He checked wrong.
@Aidan OS is Ubuntu and client is ruTorrent
Arch-Linux & Deluge works well together.
Get a slice!

@yokowasis
Exactly, I wanted to use the GUI to better manage the downloads and uploads, use rclone in partnership with rclonebrowser as well. I have already decided that I intend to use a Linux VPS, since I left the system a little aside and want to use it again.
@Aidan
Wow, I'd completely forgotten Delug BiTorrent. He is a great torrent client. What about qBittorrent?
@Francisco
Thank you for this option. I will save all of them for future testing, where I will test each of these services.
@HJSC I have PMed you....
You can use this command to install GUI + VNC Server on Centos 7 64bit.
bash <(curl -s centos7.panel.web.id/vnc/)From there you can yum firefox or any gui app.
Interesting. I have not used Centos yet.
