VPS with 2 Cores / 2 GB RAM / 100 GB Disk, under $5

ITChristianITChristian Member
in Requests

Hello!

I am looking for a VPS with following specs:

  • min. 2GB RAM
  • min. 2 Cores
  • min. 100GB disk space (could be HDD)
  • min. 200mbps
  • preferred unmetered bandwidth
  • could be located almost anywhere in the world

The price per month should be lower than $5.

Can anyone help me? Do you know such a provider? Thank you!

    If you are okay with decent performance, you can find SSDNodes's offer here https://www.ssdnodes.com/

    8GB RAM
    100GB SSD
    2 vCPU
    4TB transfer
    49/yr

    BW is not unmetered.

    Do you have to pay yearly, or can you do monthly?

    I got SSDNodes server earlier this year.
    Like their name sugests, they like SSDs very much. They like them so much that they are placing your "RAM" on them. xD

    If you like DDR1 speeds then go with it

    Basically avoid ssdnodes at all cost, in case you didn't catch the subtle hints already mentioned.

  • dahartigandahartigan Member

    Imagine SSDnodes is the plague. Imagine your exposure is critical. Run.

    You need to pay for 3yrs in advance, i.e., $147. If you select the monthly option, the price is insanely high ($20/month).
    They have been in business for 9+ years, so I do not think they will steal your money. I have been using their VPS for 3+ years.
    Since the price is meager, my expectations are also low. But their servers are rock-solid; I do not remember any downtime except for maintenance or migration.

    Here is the benchmark. This is their "performance VPS" with NVMe. You can see how slow it is. That's why I use their VPS mainly for backup purposes.

    Thank you all so much!

    Will definitely avoid SSDNodes then.

    What about TNA Hosting (performance)? Someone recommended it here.

    Thank you all!

    TNA are a much better choice, but I haven't used their service for years so maybe wait for someone else to confirm.

    performance is pretty good, but it is hdd so dont expect it to be super quick. the cpu is fine.
    for uptime, i have experienced one incident a while ago, but now it seems to be better
