[Request] Truly unmetered 1Gbps dedi for caching, ~$40–60/mo, US or EU

phin · August 3

Looking for a cheap dedicated box for a caching / media-delivery workload.

Requirements:
- Bandwidth: genuinely unmetered 1 Gbps, saturable 24/7, NOT a TB cap, NOT "unlimited*" fair-use that gets throttled/suspended for constant use. This is the #1 requirement; please don't pitch a 20/30/100TB quota.
- RAM: 32 GB+ preferred (16 GB workable).
- CPU: 6+ cores, older Xeon/Ryzen totally fine.
- Disk: Hot-cache box: 1 TB+ NVMe/SSD
- Location: US (East/Central preferred) or EU. Flexible.

Details:
- Budget: ~$40–60/mo to start. Will scale to multiple boxes / 10 Gbps if the first one performs.
- Use case: Content caching, high sustained outbound.
- Payment: crypto (BTC/XMR/USDT) preferred, card possible.
- Term: monthly to start, annual if it's a good fit.
- Instant/auto-deploy is a plus.

Would have gone with Nocix $40/mo 32GB DDR4/1TB NVME but seems to be out of stock unfortunately.

@jayjay from mlnl.host should be able to offer, but please make sure if they are okay with you saturating the link. Often times a dedicated 1Gbps uplink costs more than $40-60/month.

alternatively @concept could probably recommend you some OVH dedi.

@HostDZire can maybe hook something up in LSW AMS
OVH is also a good pick

@DartNode in Houston, TX.

We could do this $50 on a Gold CPU VPS in the UK as part of our hardware clearance range.

OhJohn · August 3

OVH CA ECO, SYS-3 with 32GB RAM, two 960GB NVMe and 1gbps unmetered at $46.5 plus tax.

(This is probably what @concept would recommend)

https://eco.ovhcloud.com/en/soyoustart/sys-3/

Currently UK is listed as in stock, but this changes fast (they have France/Germany/Poland/UK/Canada).

I like how two you of @ me for the OVH recommendation.
Yeah OVH is a easy choice.

I would also look at OneProvider/Scaleway.
@1GServers have some good deals on 1G Unmetered servers in US West.
@Mevspace can provide some nice Ryzen Dedis with real unmetered 1G.

If you are willing to up your budget, its hard to beat onlyservers 25G and, 1Gservers's true unmetered 10G offers. @GTHost has some nice 2G unmetered options too.

Soon to be 10G expert.
Maybe this is why 1GServers/onlyservers say no to Tor because of me generating massive bw bills

Probably in the future. I was looking at 1gservers' 10G offers but that's for when I scale (eventually)

Regardless it doesn't prove anything. Anyone can put a screenshot up, say something, and make claims/allegations about someone. Glowies do this all the time.
