You may already be aware, but Nocix has dedis for $15/month that meet most of your specs. A regular SSD instead of NVMe and the CPUs are ancient, but you can burn them up 24/7 at 100%.

Yeah someone sent me a PM and reminded me of NocIX I can't believe that I forgot about them, I wonder who else I can't remember

Their other moniker is wholesale internet. Keep in mind that unless you get a custom build, there is absolutely no ipmi or hands-on. You can request a spider if you get a custom build.

I just had a look, thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten about WSI.
To be honest, i think they have reached a minimum price floor on power anyway, they do have cheap stuff that you cant get anywhere else because its so old, but when you compare anything slightly bigger, they actually start to get more expensive, idk, maybe they need an overhaul, but paying $70 p/month just for a ddr3 64GB Ram upgrade when you plan to have the server for 5 years is nonsense and different disks that are already extra should have pretty uniform pricing, this is all over the shop.
So if you for some reason want a core2duo... they are great otherwise they have actually become pretty uncompetitive, charging 10 years ago process for now 20 years ago hardware.
Will I take a $9 dedi? damn right I will, but for myself, because I have issues, not for TierHive though

I take too many pills now, if I have to make a long term decision, I have to give it 24 hours haha.
Same usually takes a day or so to clear the cobwebs.
Agreed. Giving extra time for decision making is always a good idea. I take a week or more before buying things over $50 online. Usually after a week, the mindset change helps to verify if i "need" it or just "want" it.
I usually dont need it but buy anyways. Probably explains my inventory obsession.

Rent to Own? There is something cool in that some provider is offering it as a option.
Yeah that is pretty cool, often you then get hit with a Colo contract that is just the same price as the server though or a collection only, you arrange and you pay for remote hands and packaging bill for $500 on a server with $150

Ioflood used to offer some great buy down options.
Like if you wanted 18x 10TB disks they would give you the option to essentially pay for the disks over a year or so and then they took the price of the disks off the monthly price, in year 2+ which worked out great.

Well it is not an ideal solution but well it is an option like everything

Dacentec still does rent to own. I have had a server there for like forever and two years. Not many issues and the staff os pretty prompt.
This is the only provider I had who reimaged a machine of mine and gave it to someone else in error. Didn't pull the disks, just flattened it and handed it over. Only figured out what was going on when someone else was on my IPMI.

It happened probably 8 years ago. They were polite about it, but I noped out. Thankfully I still had old VPS images to rebuild from, but that's why I've had a shit WSI box for the last several years. It just sits there until someone needs to borrow my ethernet port.
