Cheap VPS for seedbox
With the following specs
512MB-1GB RAM DDR3 (I don't really care about RAM since I'll be only running qbittorrent)
1-2gbps upload
5TB BW (can be less!)
100-200GB HDD
Will use for torrent ratio (private trackers)
3 dollars/month (max)
Thanks!
Thanked by 1inthecloudblog

Upload could be 1gbps or 2gbps!
If yearly is suitable, greencloud do a 500gb storage kvm for $25/yr
I've been using it as a seedbox recently and had no issues
2GB RAM and 500GB HDD
Link pls friend?

However, if you can get a SSD (or even ZFS HDD) for the $, do that.
Thank you for your options, my friend. I appreciate. Will look into it!

@DeusVult dataideas is a good option, $5/mo.
You only need 5TB bandwidth monthly and 200 GB disk for a PT seedbox? PT can easily eat tens of TBs of data in a few days, given a 1Gbps port..
@dedipromo Depends on the private tracker torrent site obviously
depending on the sites, usually low end box would not be fast enough to get all the uploads, even on a 1G pipe...for example, on TL, too many 10G pipes, your ratio would be 0.3 something on a freeleech...
I would suggest getting a 10G box
