Neeed VPS in EU: 2C / 2G / 10GiB SSD / 800GiB HDD
On the lookout for a tiny beefy VPS, with hybrid storage.
Not in a hurry (can wait till ~May 15th).
Desirableed specs at least:
- KVM/VMw, no OVZ/LXD
- 2 vCPU w/ AES-NI
- 2 GB RAM
- 10+ GiB SSD (20 GiB preferred) for an OS that kicks ars
- 800~1000 GiB of spinning rust... with tolerable io please
- 1 TiB at 100+ mbps per month (200mbps preferred)
- no hard cutoff once bw exceeded (even 1mbps will do)
- native IPv6 + some IPv4 connectivity (NAT's fine)
- low delay (<25ms) to Paris' ping6.online.net, so likely in FR NL DE GB IT.
Budget 3€/month, annual payment ok. Can go a bit higher if extra perfs/perks.
Something along the lines of Servarica's Opossum2 plan... but in the Old World
Usage will be rather modest - nothing shady nor noisy: backend for some light web hosting/mirroring + infrequent cold data encrypted backup.

If you can wait it out

Thanks - had noticed your sweet offer... but a bit too far (>30ms) and above budget.
(BTW the IPv6 of your lookingglass seems down.)
maybe you can finde something here: https://login.layer7.net/index.php?rp=/store/storage-server-par1
Thanks for the tip. A bit too much/pricey ("trop beaucoup" ©) for my needs, but close
I've checked hostbrr's "hybrid" line also - close but no cigar.
Budget is a bit low.
Maybe try waiting for the upcoming HostBrr sale, @Labze mentioned on LET he'll be releasing hybrid storage then

Yep, I'm playing MrCheapo here, in the hope that some special/custom offers or extraordinary suggestions pop up.
I take Servarica as reference (hell, $36/yr for 2C/2G/1T is neat) but I have to admit it was a bit on the low side performance-wise, that's why I'll also consider more expensive offers if still a good bargain.
I see.
If that's the case, best bang for buck remains host C.
EUR 3 * 12 = EUR 36/yr
For ~9 EUR extra, you get 4TB additional storage and a decent, not oversold CPU. Has 20GB NVMe boot too.
Maybe after the RDS peering issues are solved, you'll have a better latency, I'm waiting for that fix too, ping is not the best to Asia.

So, this is our best plan for you. Please note that we will suspend (stop) your VPS until next month if you overuse your bandwidth, so I entered one TB more than your request.

We can do this at €20/year VAT incl. or €3/month VAT incl.

I have storage vps with @host_c and it is excellent in performance and stability. The proper ticketing system is extremely helpful to get support in time.
I personally avoid providers who do not have proper ticket based online support. Also check the cancellation policy as well before signing up
Yep, I'm wary of summerhosts and other too-good-to-be-true "funny" hosts (a recipe for LowEndlessDramas on the sister LowEndTrash forum, wink wink). They harvest gazilions of customers - including tons of noisy neighbours - thanks to cheap powerful plans shining in benchmarks... then after a few weeks quality goes to deep sh*t (iops, latency, bankruptcy, "of course it was all raid0", whatever...).
As for @host_c, save for the fact they're newcomers and out-of-stock right now (and weird statements such as no DNS, XFS, qemu-guest-agent etc.), it looks tempting indeed, and definitely in my budget. Especially now that I can see that their IPv6 is roughly ~25ms only from here.
I have been @host_c customer since Dec 2023, and recently upgraded my storage VPS.
Compare these two GB6 scores from two providers
same cpu and both "claim" with 2 vCores
Avoid providers who won’t share GB6 score from their “busy node”
Went for a neat offer at @Labze's HostBrr - and it appears to kick a$$ so far
