Ask HN: Best Budget VPS providers?

2 pointsby johnwaynedoeover 7 years ago
I am currently looking for a reasonably priced VPS. I am planning on hosting a few personal site on it, but would also like the ability to possibly run plex or a similar service on it. So a large HDD would be nice. Does anyone have any recommendations? Who is your host? Are you happy with them?

Could you consider a dedicated server instead of a VPS? Depending on how great your desire for larger storage is, one of Online.net [1], OVH [2] or Hetzner.de&#x27;s serverbörse [3] might be a better fit. I have good experience with all three, but they all have their quirks. Also, I don&#x27;t think they all have presence in Northern America, if you&#x27;re worried about latency.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.online.net&#x2F;en&#x2F;dedicated-server#anchor-perso" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.online.net&#x2F;en&#x2F;dedicated-server#anchor-perso</a> [2] Either their <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kimsufi.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kimsufi.com&#x2F;</a> or <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.soyoustart.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.soyoustart.com</a> line of servers [3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.hetzner.com&#x2F;sb?country=gb" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.hetzner.com&#x2F;sb?country=gb</a>

I&#x27;m pretty happy with Scaleway - no major issues and their ARM boxes are surprisingly powerful for what they offer. SSD only though, with no large storage options.

This looked like the ideal plan to me<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;servarica.com&#x2F;clients&#x2F;cart.php?gid=43" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;servarica.com&#x2F;clients&#x2F;cart.php?gid=43</a><p>But after ordering, paying and waiting a day for &quot;provisioning&quot; they cancelled my order.
