High storage/bandwidth VPS
I want to replace my offline Perfume VPS. What's the most disk and bandwidth I can get for about $30/yr? 1TB? 2TB? Any real virt is fine, Ubuntu LTS or Debian latest. Paying with BTC.
I don't care about where it is, but no OVH/Hetzner/NL/DE/Online-net (already have).
Single home HE? Single home Cogent? YES, 100% OK!
Trash bandwidth? YES!
Low bandwidth in single thread? NO PROBLEM!
98% uptime? OK!
95% uptime? I hope it's much cheaper!!!
Ban adult? I don't care! There is no adult.
Ban piracy? I don't care! It is all legal files, seriously not torrenting or pirating here - bunch of 15-60GB files for ML/AI, checkpoints, etc.
This is explicitly not for cold storage uses, but ipynb/notebooks/python scripts will be downloading 15GB files hourly/daily.

@aiden1 You can take a look at our Storage05TB or Storage1TB here: https://greenkvm.com
You can get 1 TB vps @29.99 euros / year (sorry it's in euros as your expectations were in dollars though) from time4vps
Other one which I trust more is Liteserver.nl has 512 GB vps for 32 euros / year (drop a ticket and there will be some code available and would be offered to you)
Hostens vps but there you will have to pay for straight three years and you would get 512 GB vps for 30 dollars per year (Yes this is what is in your price range, but have to pay for three years straight)
Above three are reliable providers with Liteserver been more better than other two.
Second ^ for Time4VPS, but I think the promo is only valid for 1 time, not recurring.
Yes that's right, I forgot to mention, anyways @aiden1 You will get some good offers on blackfriday or on some occasions, just stay in touch with lowendtalk.
Thanks, but time4vps/hostens unless something has changed is VZ I think? Cannot run what I need.
I am fine paying 1-2-3 years though, and can flex budget a bit to 40-50 USD
Unfortunately too little bw
What are you running anyway that needs OpenVZ? Docker containers with ipynb notebooks?
it is all infrastructure-as-code style, docker, networked mounts, iptables/nftables rules, does not work well if at all on ovz (even 7 only half works)
You can vouch for liteserver.nl, what I told you is KVM storage vps. Also provides 10 TB bandwidth.
Or other way is to get https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/169062/buyvm-slabs-arrive-in-luxembourg-ryzen-free-snapshots-free-routed-48-ip-load-balancing-oh-my/p1 and add slab to it but that would cost you near 5 dollars per month and which I think is off your budget.
Other one which is obviously better is Racknerd, but the disk space with that price range would be not more than 30-40 gb per year.
As your requirement of space and type of vps is different, I bet it's hard to find one with that price range and specs you need (High space and high bandwidth)
Can you specify what is your bandwidth limits so it would be easier to categorise vps for you.
Also you can look at Contabo vps but again price and your specs are off radar.
Will give liteserver a look. I'm lokoing about 1TB disk : 10TB BW ratio. Already using racknerd.
Ask the nerd to double your BW
Not much in the 1TB/10TB range if I even increase to $5/m paid annually? That's already more than 10x what Perfume VPS cost.
LiteServer is solid!
The 500GB storage at that prices pinches a little but then if you are services are even little critical/important they are the ones you want to go with.

They have multiple locations, you can get 2TB bandwidth with less than $30/year
Oh boy do i have something for you:
https://www.fdcservers.net/
The cheapst I can find is 1tb disk for $40/m, all the VPS is SSD with 10GB disk
wow, FDC cheapest colo plan is $200/m minimum... and it is supposed to be budget pure cogent?
I have some of these:
https://orders.fdcservers.net/order/plan/822
1Gbit unmetered @ 10G shared + 1TB Storage for 40$/Mo
Pure Cogent and choice of a bunch of rather rare locations (Spain, Austria, Canada). 200-400TB/mo no issue.
It's not the cheapest but with 5 IPs and the unmetered 10G it is fairly solid.
do you know whether the 10G is actually limited to 10G in 1G out? or can i use more than 1G out sometimes shared?
It is burstable.
He asked for $30/year and you responded with $40/month. I don't know why he even responded, but shit like that will just ruin request threads when the end result is nothing like requested.
Where to give the ticket
