I'm looking to run utserver, storj, and maybe ipfs as a storage and bandwidth server. I've used Atom or i3 ~2Ghz in the past for 2C/2T... I'm trying to make some of my cost back by earning storj tokens and the rest I'll use help support the ipfs network and select .torrents like sxsw, webarchive, linux, etc.
I used to pay $20 for a higher end dedi, but want a more affordable dedi to help support networks.

lol, I've been around here long enough to know that a dedi for $5/month is just not happening.
kimsufi has their 3.99€ server, but I always seem to miss their special. every time I try, they are out of stock... I've also seen ARM dedicated servers for less than 5€, but found the processor speeds to be a little slow.
Sure, can you tell us more about your disabilities ?
Any reason you want a slower dedicated instead of a faster vps? The storage?
Well, I guess you have discovered the limitations of your budget.
No.
If you want x86, check the baremetal Scaleway 4 core @ €12. they are dedicated servers, only disk is network shared.
Also, Wholesaleinternet has $10 Dual-core frequently on stock.
If it has to be on the range of $5, you might have to settle for ARM offers, which I've tested for web peformance and found them neck-and-neck with x86 machines. (See: https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/2804009/#Comment_2804009)
Where is @VortexMagnus with those $5 dedi's? lol
ARM Cortex A9 ARMv7, 2GB, 2TB, Unlimited @ 250Mbit for 4.99€ in France.

If I want to use 100% CPU, most VPS don't like that. So, dedi is usually the way I go, but you're right... I could use VPS as long as the storage was available. 500GB at least, but 1TB is nice.
SoYouStart - out of stock again: https://www.soyoustart.com/ie/server-storage/
KimSufi - out of stock again:
Atom D425, 2GB, 0.5TB, 100Mbit for 3.99€

I guess I need to be more patient and keep trying.
I may have to try ARM again. I guess once the processes are running, it should be fine.
Still very surprised with those SYS ARM servers with NAS CPU.
Got Nginx, php-fpm and seeding 200+ without any issue.
Only complain is the CPU got maxed out before bandwidth when downloading huge files via HTTPS.
I ended up getting a KimSufi server for 3.99€/mo plus the set up fee. I'm happy with the performance and I will make do with 500GB.
Well, I tried Storj with someone else, we really did not get any money, it was not worth the afford.
The application crashed to often..
However you could checkout https://metadedi.pw
maybe You can Try oneprovider.com. 1gbit's but IF you use for seeding torrent they are limit 100 mbits. start 11€
Or you can try my signature wishosting 1.8 TB VPS. weekdays work good but weekends speed is down 80-100 mbits.
