Looking for a dedicated seedbox

    I would definitely recommend @PulsedMedia
    They actually own their hardware unlike other providers that just resell Hetzner and Leaseweb.

    You can combo our storage box with a MD series dedi for fast, dedicated seedboxing and lots of bulk storage too.

    Current MD units available;

    • MD2: i5-7500t 4c/4t 2.7Ghz, 16GB DDR4, 2000GB NVMe, 1Gbps, Stock: 2. 30.24€ - Get It
    • MD6: i5-8500t 6c/6t 2.1Ghz, 32GB DDR4, 1000GB NVMe, 1Gbps, Stock: 1. 28.55€ - Get It
    • MD14: i5-6500t 4c/4t 2.5Ghz, 16GB DDR4, 500GB NVMe, 1Gbps, Stock: 1. 26.32€ - Get It
    • MD16: i5-6500t 4c/4t 2.5Ghz, 16GB DDR4, 1000GB NVMe, 1Gbps, Stock: 1. 21.70€ - Get It
    • MD30: i5-7500t 4c/4t 2.7Ghz, 32GB DDR4, 2000GB NVMe, 1Gbps, Stock: 1. 39.46€ - Get It

    Then just rclone mount with caching on local nvme one of the storage boxes.

    @plumberg @deadorbit Regarding hostingbydesign, I would suggest reading the two articles below. Seedbox.io was owned by the owner of HBD, and it seems like Seedbox.io and walkerservers were merged to form HBD.

    https://torrentfreak.com/criminal-copyright-complaint-filed-against-bittorrent-seedbox-providers-211110/
    https://torrentfreak.com/bittorrent-seedbox-provider-handed-criminal-conviction-over-users-piracy-230301/

    Also oneprovider is a Canadian company. IF an abuse complaint is forwarded from Scaleway (Online.net) to oneprovider, they will most likely terminate your account on the second if not the first complaint.

    And I am once again asking you - Why do you keep bringing up content that are nearly 3 years old? Something that didn't hurt a single user and is long in the past.

    hostingby.design is a merger of a lot of domains/companies we own/have bought up, the lawsuit was against a fraction of that clientbase and was against me personally, not the companies.

    I don't expect you to reply seeing as you've never responded to anyone about this other than pushing it in every thread over company is in, will you do this in 10 years aswell? We will be here in 10 years.

    8TB Storage, 1Gbps unmetered bandwidth, $24.12/month

    https://oneprovider.com/configure/dediconf/2938

    The savings comes at a real cost. Decided to try out that dedicated server deal and I'm seeing max upload speeds of ~25Mbps whereas with seedhost I average around 500Mbps upload.

  • @concept said:

    imo PulsedMedia has the least favorable choices. To get what I currently have now (8TB hdd, 100TB transfer) I'd have to pay something like $60 a month as opposed to $28 that I pay now.

    Seedhost, being a seedbox provider, likely has tuned torrent clients and optimized OS/network settings, but with OneProvider, you need to handle many of these optimizations yourself. If you notice regular upload speeds (non-torrent traffic ) being low, maybe reach out to support.

    Seedhost does not tune anything, unlikely HBD or Andy does.

    Doubtful, seedhost is using servers from 2009 lol. I just set up rtorrent using Swizzin which is a well known seedbox configuration app. I'm going to run a benchmark script and see if maybe the server is throttled.

    Without proper tune, YOU WILL NOT gain good results, especially with rtorrent (unless in long term).

  • If seedhost works for you then it works. Seems like it can't get any better for you.

    Agreed, qbittorrent ftw

  • I cant seem to understand what is this thing about old hardware and leaseweb volume network that gets so much attention all the time by the seedbox users?

    HBD wins in terms of unmetered 1gpbs boxes. seedhost and hbd both offer poor hardware, but HEY you get what you pay for. Since when seedbox user require high end cpu? they dont, simple.

    Incorrect; https://pulsedmedia.com/storage-boxes.php

    15€ a month for 8TB Storage, mount it on a MD node for ~20€ a month. Total is 35-40€ a month for NVMe cached dedicated seedbox.

    Seems like you answered your own question. If I can seed 400+ torrents on hardware from 2009 and pay less money why the f would I opt to pay more money for better hardware but less overall storage or bandwidth?

    Also most seeders I know have no need for unmetered bandwidth because it's unrealistic that most seed over 100-300TB a month anyway.

    I don't get this either. Personally I love huge storage on HDDs with some low-end resources (some cheap RAM + 1CPU core) instead of high-end NVMe/SSD with DDR5 and whatnot.

    I understand there is a selling point for these high-end resources as many customers probably need these, but my needs are not there yet (which is why I'm here, among the low-end).

    Completely false. My dedicated box through OneProvider hit 113MiB/s upload this morning with no "tuning". Just a fresh Debian 11 install and rtorrent/ruTorrent installed via Swizzin.

    My other boxes (one shared, one dedicated) from seedhost usually max out at 50-60MiB/s.

    Completely true :), expand a little bit. Not only public torrent exists.

    @CalmDown is someone who offers tuning services and I believe was associated with a seedbox host.

    Oneprovider , He is a professional fraudster.
    He misleads people.
    definitely a place to stay away from.
    keep your family, your loved ones away.
