Need some advice
I'm planning to start up a Minecraft server. It's currently in development on a 2.5GB OpenVZ with @GetKVM_Ash , but I expect to need SAS15k or even SSD for my IO needs. What would be better: A 4GB RAM SSD/Sas15k VPS, or a small dedicated server with SSD. Budget is around 20/30€ a month. Offers are also welcome, both here and in my PM box. Preferably in the EU too.

For minecraft i would use an SSD for optimal speeds of your server and no lag
You could take a VPS with an SSD
I can do a 4GB RAM SSD VPS in the UK for £30/month assuming you don't need masses of disk space or bandwidth.
For your budget you can get only a ssd vps not a dedicated.
I do Minecraft hosting in addition to our VPS servers. Could do 4Gb on our SSD minecraft nodes for €30.
We might have something for you if you open a ticket we can speak about it tomorrow
I have a small server that I play on with a few friends. It is OpenVZ with 2.5GB of RAM. 1GB for the server and 1GB of ramdisk for the data. It works well.

This is cheap, what payment method accepted?
Atom 230and only 1 GB ram, might be cheap, but will not cover the requirements.
Well I am not sure how RAM/CPU intensive minecraft is. I always thought it was I/O hungry. Something you don't want on a VPS.
offer is pmed to you.
IO hungry if you don't have enough ram I suppose.
It's CPU hungry mostly. Then RAM. I/O isn't as much since things get loaded to RAM.
I wouldn't recommend using a VPS for a Minecraft server.
Your issue will be CPU, not RAM. Minecraft does not hesitate to eat a full core up and keep it that way.
Would have to go with a Minecraft specific VPS or server.
It is both....... It will gladly use up a full CPU core and keep it that way.
RAM wise, it all depends on how many players and if you're running mods, etc.
@Freek that is crazy cheap - $11.75/mo for a dedi with unlim bandwidth.
If only I spoke French...
Google Translate should suffice for the order process I guess
