Cheapest 2Gbps + cloud/dedicated server with big storage of 5-10TB? EU/UK location

We're looking for a backup storage server with eg. 6X8TB Raid 6, we have found such products at Hetzner and OVH, but we do not want to go though their verification process so where can we buy this without such KYC?
We're not going to do anything scammy with this server, we just need a place to store incremental backups and perhaps do some video encoding. We do value our privacy and these mentioned companies seems expect us to submit DNA sample as part of just ordering a simple server.

Hi Guys,

I guess they deserve to have this feedback, I've been using wholesaleinternet dedicated servers since 1st of January 2013 over 8 years damn! I am getting old

I used to have dedicated server with expensive providers before I met wholesaleinternet, believe or not I have less problem with wholesaleinternet after I changed from previous dedi provider. I have 0 problem last 5-6 years. These guys knows what they are doing from management to support, they have backup power, backup internet providers etc to maintain servers in good shape.

Price: I don't think you would find better pricing than wholesaleinternet I also have ovh budget dedicated servers close to wholesaleinternet prices they are also good after wholesaleinternet.

Support: When I had dedicated server with expensive service providers, response time of tickets around 2-12 hours. believe or not every time I create ticket with wholesaleinternet they response and make it happen solution nearly in an hour. My last interact was I need to have KVM and they installed within 30min. I have no words with these guys they are not only fast but also proactive.

My budget is 150-200$ for one server, I can buy max 5 servers because my storage already nearly 10TB.

- I am currently using HDD storage - 2x2 TB HDD and make it become raid 0 to use full 4 TB HDD on /root disk, but photos load very slow and blur ( customers load, not servers load ) when servers had nearly 3 TB/4 TB.

So anyone recommend best dedicated for my budget and it can load fast?

Thank all for support!

please,
any alternative to hetzner in europe? I already have several servers at Hetzner and wanted to have a backup provider.

would have something with dell or hp amd epyc servers with similar prices besides leaseweb?

What is the actual meaning of Dedicated servers ? ok the answer is a dedicated server is a type of web hosting in which a client has the exclusive use of an entire server. So that mean VPS also a dedicated server. We used that word a decade ago for Bare Metal Servers. I think we should correct the WHT category as Bare Metal Servers. This is just a suggestion. What do you think about that ?

Hi,

i use centos with cpanel,
and set cpanel account for each hosting srver to run backup with jetbackup.

about the backup server,
do you use any control panel to manage them ?
or just use centos and create normal user ?

Hiho, I'm currently looking for an alternative to the HETZNER server offer



HETZNER SEVRER OFFER
€ 76.00 per month

Intel® Xeon® E3-1275 v5 quad-core
including Hyper-Threading Technology
RAM: 64 GB DDR4 ECC
Hard disks: 4 x 16 TB Enterprise HDD 7200 rpm
(Software RAID; level optional)
Connection: 1 GBit / s port
Guaranteed bandwidth: 1 GBit / s
Backup space: 100 GB
Traffic: Unlimited *

So an alternative offer like the hetzner search server
The alternative server does not need a backup function
the CPU can be smaller and cheaper
The work memory can also be cheaper and smaller from 8 GB would be okay
The HDD must have at least 52 TB, larger but not cost more than 80 € per month


Many thanks in advance for your <<suggestions>>

i am asking in forum because i can get more knowledge and explaination here

please share your replies.

hello,

For about 100eur, i can get managed Hetzner server: hetzner.com/managed-server

OR unmanaged Hetzner server + platinumservermanagement.com/ (or + myw.pt/devops).


What will be a better option?

I have no experience as System Administrator.

I will like to keep the server fast, optimized, and online.

I don't plan to host many websites on the server, I need a server for a couple of large websites.

So optimization of servers for sites is very important to me.

For optimization I mean, cache optimization, database optimization, server optimization for WordPress, etc...

Is anyone have experience with Hetzner managed servers?


Best Regards

Hello everyone. Have been a long time lurker, but never registered. So, firstly want to say big thank you to this wholesome community for always giving great advices to everyone out there. You guys rock!

I am trying to find an alternative to Hetzner's SX133 which is ridiculously great priced. How do they even do that? Well done Hetzner. On 24/03/2021 - SX133's specs a
Intel® Xeon® W-2145 8 cores, 16 threads,
128 GB DDR4 ECC,
2 x 960 GB NVMe SSD,
10 x 16 TB (SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 rpm) a whooping 160 TB of storage,
1 Gbit/s connection,
Unlimited traffic,
159.00 (without TAX) I need this for an image hosting website, where users do sometimes upload adult content. Sadly Hetzner TOS (point 6.2) does not allow that and they are entitled to block access to the account of any customer who violates this. Which is fine - it's their rules.


My budget is 180 EUR (without TAX), but I don't even need such fancy specs as Hetzner provides. I am completely okay to settle with something like:
4 core, 8 thread CPU,
32 GB DRR3 ECC,
2 or even 1 240 GB SATA SSD,
The most important factor is storage. The more the better, the minimum would be ~100 TB (SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 rpm)
1 Gbit/s connection,
Website last month traffic was 500 TB, but since 90% is cached by CDN...would still need about 50 TB. Obviously unlimited traffic would be great. Seems like very few hosting companies actually offer dedicated servers for storage purposes. I have already checked OVH, Leaseweb, OneProvider, Flaunt7 and some local country hostings, but it seems like noone is even close in comparison to what Hetzner offers. It's like their offer is from the future and hopefully in 1-2 years time, others will get there as well.

It be nice if server were located somewhere close to West/Middle of Russia.


P.S As another option, maybe I could rent more then one dedicated server so that their storage capacity would be ~100 TB and going with CEPH instead of RAID6, but still, can't exced 180 EUR budget. Any ideas greatly appreciated.
