1gbit/sec unmetered VPS for ~$50 a year?

arjones85arjones85 Member

Hi all,

Curious if there are any other providers that offer decent unmetered VPS service for the same price point as LosAngelesVPS? I run public linux repo mirrors, so the unmetered bandwidth is important to me.

Thanks in advance for the tips!

    Definitely not unmetered 1Gbps for that price point. 100Mbps per 4GB is the rule. So $15 (4GB)x10 - thats some $150/month. @Francisco can correct me if I am wrong.

    I believe @hostworld does have unmetered, although I'm not sure what their AUP policy is on using full 1Gbps port 24/7

    Another one is @DataIdeas-Josh although he has to chime in on bandwidth usage as well.

    Lastly if you need high bandwidth - @hotlineservers can probably do something about it, and @SWN_Michael might be able to help for a lower port speed unmetered, but not sure if that budget will be enough.

    How much disk space and RAM do you need?

  • axelblazeaxelblaze Member

    I think @BharatB does unmetered bandwidth with his VM's

    Not that I personally care, but where does it say that?
    Because all I can see is "Unmetered Bandwidth" marketed with every single KVM VM and nothing else about it at all

    I have asked in the past. But again - @Francisco can chime in on that.

    From their Discord faqs channel,

    What and how much bandwidth is provided for my slice?
The rule-of-thumb for WAN (internet-facing connections) is 100Mbit/s of 24/7 usage per every 4GB of memory with a purchased slice. 
We do, however, allow our customers to “burst” their usage up to 1Gbit/s during times of lower network use across the entire node. 
Internal (private) networks do not have these bandwidth limitations, and can take advantage of our 40Gbit/s LAN for routing traffic between slices within the same datacenter.

What infrastructure does Frantech use for my services?
Frantech (BuyVM) slice nodes currently run on Ryzen 9 3900X CPUs along with 10Gbit/s uplinks and NVMe SSDs in order to provide fast performance to our customers. 
Our slab (block storage) nodes currently use HDDs (“spinning rust” as the datahoarder community likes to call it) in a RAID10 hardware raid configuration for long-term data storage, along with a level of SSD cache to provide faster read and write times. 
Slab nodes also connect to the slice nodes using an internal 40Gbit/s Infiniband network to allow multiple customers on the same node to use their block storage simultaneously. 

Where can I find the Terms of Service for Frantech?
You can find the Frantech Solutions Terms of Service on our website at https://buyvm.net/terms-of-service/. You can also find the Acceptable Usage Policy at https://buyvm.net/acceptable-use-policy/.

    :D Is this a joke?

    So a customer has to join your discord to be able to see real specifications of your products? All you have on your website is "Unmetered" and "Unlimited", nothing else.

    That's fair, the site needs a redo :)

    People that need to push always ask. It's rare to get a $2/m guy wanting to rip a gig and upset he can't.

    Most people push more than their plan really allows, but most people run out of CPU/RAM before bandwidth anyway.

    Funny coming from a provider that acts so above everyone else

    Well it's not wrong though? It's unmetered, but does it say unmetered 1gbps or 10gbps? Especially with the price you're paying, there are of course limits.

    To quote for you : "Unlim. 1000 Mbps"

    Of course you cant give someone 300TB per month for 2$ but it needs to be specified right? And 1 post above you provider seems to agree, so he'll add the mention of that and all is good.

  • DataIdeas-JoshDataIdeas-Josh Member, Patron Provider

    All vps has 1Gbps ports and you can use it as much as you want. All we care about is your CPU usage.
    https://my2.dataideas.com/store

    1GB ram / 25% cpu sustained.
    and goes up per package.

    Isnt that why acceptable usage policy are? Do you also complain when your provider doesn't let you utilise 100% of the cpu core 24 * 7?

    Sorry I didn't include that earlier.

    My current plan is 60GB disk, 4 CPUs, 4 GB ram. Something similar would be great.

    I had it in my subject line, around $50/yr.

    What prompted me to start this thread is I'm a customer of LosAngelesVPS and need another VM for a second repo mirror. I wanted to spread out the providers I use but was unable to find any advertised specials that seemed to get close to what they are providing for the price. Here's all the specs in one spot:

    4 vcpus
    4 GB memory
    60 GB disk
    1gbit unmetered connection
    $45/yr

    Maybe this is a unicorn package? 😄

    Only complaint for my use case is more disk would be nice. I use FSCache and pull the packages I serve from a larger NFS server, so the most accessed files will get cached on the local disk of the VM. More space for the cache is always better.

    @arjones85

    That's around $3.75 a month and very impressive for specs.
    I'm not sure what type of CPU that they are using. If interested I can give you this package at $50/yr
    Storage - 2GB Ram / 20GB NVME / 120GB SSD
    https://my2.dataideas.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=27

    We have a Raspberry Pi 4 - 8GB Ram/256GB Drive coming on the 1st as well that we can do for $10/month

    Otherwise we have our dedicated machines that will have way bigger drives but are more expensive come the 1st
    Dual Intel Xeon E5620 - 128GB RAM
    1TB ssd
    4x 4tb sas hdds
    128GB ram
    2x Intel Xeon E5620
    1Gbps port (32TB/Monthly)
    $70/month

    and

    Dual Intel Xeon X5670 - SSD
    2x 250GB ssds
    4x 1TB ssds
    2x Intel Xeon X5670
    160GB RAM
    1Gbps port (32TB/Monthly)
    $70/month

    Not sure if you are trolling or what.

    To answer your question; If I buy a VM and it tells me "Unlimited CPU usage", yes I will complain if they block me over it. Why? Because IT SAYS UNLIMITED !

    Same for bandwidth, is it not unlimited? Sure, specify the limits.

    And since you blable about "usage policy", how about go read it before posting comments out of your ass? Because its not mentioned there either.

    Thanks! I am potentially interested with some minor tweaks.

    Your main website appears to be in "Coming Soon" mode :-). Is there more information about your business posted somewhere? How long you've been in business, where you host at, etc.
