Need storage VPS for seedbox (Linux ISOs from top private distros only)
- Budget: ~ 25-30 Euro per year (1/2/3 yearly pricing is fine)
- Disk: >= 1TB
- RAM: >= 1GB
- Speed: ~400 Mbps or more
- Bandwidth: anything around/above ~500 GB monthly is fine
- IPv4: 1
- CPU: 1-2 cores should be fine. Syncthing and r(u)Torrent. Couple of times a month.
- Usage: 4-5 top private Linux ISO providers. Not at all heavy usage. Download 1-2 weekly. Past ratio years.
- Provider: Ought to have been around and are generally trusted here
- Recurring offer/price preferred
- Not looking for a seedbox provider
I am currently using LiteSever (HDD-1G; ~30 Euro/year; recurring) and they have been just awesome. But the disk is just 500GB which fills up quite fast. I wish they could trade 500GB more disk space for greatly reducing bandwidth (which remains unused anyway)
I have been seeing posts/comments around here and it seems IH, Virmach, Racknerd etc might be such providers (probably after applying an offer) but I am not sure which one of them allow private Linux ISOs (e.g. Nexus B doesn't I reckon).
Time4VPS has a storage offer but speed is bad and they are offering ancient OS/virtualisation at a non-recurring price.
Or should I simply wait for BF deals? Even then it'd be nice to know some reliable provider names that allow Linux ISOs so that I could keep an eye for offers from them.

Wait for BF, the unsustain plan & crazy promo..
For Time4VPS try this thread https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/172286/time4vps-reliable-affordable-pricing-quality-instant-setup-storage-vps-recurring-deal/p1
Promo code LET gives 50% off and is recurring. Buy 1gbps port upgrade, it comes to 6 euro for the whole year. My 1 tb storage box came to like 36 euro for the whole year.
I didn't know/try this. Makes it definitely better than I thought it was. Thanks!
However they still have the same old virtualisation (OVZ6) and really old OS (Ubuntu 16.04). It saw its EOL in April.
@ps20090 I tried again. Still out of support OS and probably out of support virtualisation.
Lol, did you bought ancient OVZ6? Lol
No. Waited for confirmation and then stopped short of it.
