Yet another VPS request
Hi all.
Looking for yet another VPS. This will be used as a graylog server, status and likely my IdP (more consolidation and exiting).
I need the following.
2 cores
8gb of ram
At least 120gb storage (bonus points if you have addon HDD storage, if you have that then I would be okay with a 30gb nvme boot and a bigger storage disk)
Low BW requirements
Custom ISO options (or at least have clonezilla)
Location can either be in OCE, SEA or Canada.

CPX31 AMD 4 CPU 8 GB ram 160 GB hdd 3 TB € 16.49 Hillsboro Oregon
Hetzner
EDIT (i think custom iso is allowed, need to verify 1st)
Last time I checked Oregon is not in Canada, SEA or OCE.
Hi,
Have you considered greencloud storage deals (still available in the JP/SG region)?
Sadly only 6GB RAM but 2TB hard drive for $80/y would be unmatched.
Other than this, there is hostbilby 2c8g VDS serverdeals.cc deal (aff to sh97) with 200GB NVMe for $7/m, however I'm not sure if it's available in their Canada location.
@bingobangobongo can we have a clarification on that?
Greencloud KYC'd me last time, but they also offered to void the KYC requirement the last time I brought this up (need to find the post LET).
HostBilby deal is incredible, would be great if either in their Toronto or Sydney location (and fits our requirements).
Thank you Oloke 💜. Will await more info from HostBilby
What's your most ideal location out of the three areas you asked for?
Vegemite land, but I know that would be almost impossible for you at a good rate.
Second best option would be Tokyo but again probably a bit high.
What is your budget?
Probably no more than $25 USD a month.
However I am a frugal woman and I would prefer below $18 USD.
Thanks for the mention @oloke !
It’s available in Toronto
I would use OVH, Servarica, GTHost, Hostdzire
If you want something in Sydney I have a one time offer;
8GB RAM
4 Cores (9950X/4545P)
120GB NVMe
6TB @ 2.5Gbps
Sydney, AU
$16/m (USD)

Send me a message if you're interested.
Wow, that is a really good deal! No KYC too since I see you mentioned it.
I don't need 4 cores, only 2.
Would you shave a tiny bit off of that price?
It wouldn't matter here sorry, it's based on the memory allocation. The 8GB Sydney plan has 4 cores.
Just consider the extra 2 cores as free addon
Ram is expensive.
The frugal option is:
5 times less than probably no more.
They also have a sister plan with 500 GB NVMe storage (the rest is the same) for an extra dollar per month.
For hybrid SSD + HDD storage have a look at this one:
That's to match 8 GB memory request. Fits the budget as well.
If 4 GB is enough, they also have a two times smaller (and 2x cheaper) offer.
/ turn off your VPN before placing an order /
We can offer the following in Sydney:
2 vCPU • 8 GB RAM • 120 GB • 4 TB BW @ 1Gbps
$17.2/mo
Custom ISOs are supported and available for self-service through our control panel.
If you would like to have HDD storage (available in Singapore only. Sydney will be available in 1-2 weeks)
2 vCPU • 8 GB RAM • 30 GB • 4 TB BW @ 1Gbps
$11.08/mo
1TB HDD block storage
$3/mo

Let me know if you are interested, as this is custom offer
Remind me. This is in AUD correct?
quoted price is in USD.
Check out our Taiwan special
Just for transparency, I'm likely to go with Onidel if we can get the NVME storage from 30GB to 55GB. If not, I'll consider the rest of the options.
I was also about to recommend @onidel because they're known for being reliable, and also present in Australia. However onidel was doing less deals recently, I didn't think they would give you such good custom discount
Minor negotiations. @onidel just gained my business.
This Kiwi is happy to support our Aussie neighbours 💜
Thank you all, this request is now closed.
true, until i know @MaxTakeba is our Kiwi friend
You picked correctly - Chur Bro!
@MaxTakeba obviously has the right charm(s)
You can check out our plans; we offer an 8 GB VPS for $ 8, but we can do it for $6 for you.

Graylog is quite resource intensive because it's a Java-based so you'll probably want more than 2 cores, unless it's a decent CPU. I've got it running on 2 cores of a Ryzen 7950 and it runs OK, (ingesting logs from ~40 VMs), but I doubt it would work well on 2 Xeon Gold cores.
Graylog also just didn't work for me. I was testing a full blown Grafana stack and it won last night.
Hi,
Melbicom has SEA locations in Tokyo and Singapore for a VPS:
CPU 4 core (above your requirement)
RAM 8GB
Storage 80GB (a bit short here for your requirement, unfortunately)
Bandwidth up to 1 Gbps
Monthly quota 5TB
The price would be 22.8 €/month
