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.
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>>

Hello everyone,
I'm looking for a dedicated server with low latency (<2ms) to the Equinox NY4 data centre.
H/W wise:
min 6c/12t (8c better)
64gb mem
400gb ssd/nvme
high SLA on network availability
I have my own Windows OS, so need to be able to install it remotely.
I do not need high bandwidth so even a low 100gb/month with 100mb/s connection is ok for me as long as it's reliable and latency is as close to 0 as possible with NY4 datacentre.
I have a Ryzen 6c with 64gb/960gb SSD from Hetzner in Germany, but the latency is not great for what I need As an FYI, I'm paying about 50USD for the Hetzner. I'm expecting to pay a bit more than Hetzner, but not to break my budget either.
Please can you recommend any providers?
Thank you kindly.
We've been with Hetzner for years and, while satisfied with the hardware and technical support and infrastructure, quite unhappy with support/sales/abuse departments where it always feels like they're doing one a favor in even answering and often make little effort to actually help.
So my question is if there's any hosting provider to match what they offer? We want to upgrade from our current servers and one type of servers we looked into are https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax41 which you can get in Germany* for 39 EUR/month (plus 39EUR setup fee) (prices without VAT as we're outside EU). This is a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Hexa-Core which has a passmark > 17,000 and comes with 64GB RAM and 2 x 512 GB NVMe SSD. When I found something similar with OVH (slightly better CPU, 3600X instead of 3600), it 105 USD per month when committing to 24 months which is more than double.
Another type we were looking at is the https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax51
Anyway, any matching offers elsewhere? We can probably take some bandwidth limitation and cool with either EU or US locations.
*They have a center in Finland but when I did a bit of research it seemed it offers much worse network connectivity so while 5 EUR cheaper per server, doesn't seem to be worth the risk.
Hi,
I am looking for a storage dedicated server in USA or Canada with the below minimum specs:
Disks: 4 x 10 TB Enterprise HDD
RAM: 16 GB
CPU: 4 cores
Budget: up to $100/month or $1000/year
Thank you in advance for your recommendations.
Please make some suggestions/recommendations.
I was backing up some servers to Hetzner dedicated server with JetBackup, but it's very slow even with incremental. I see iowait is around 30.00% plus.
The servers I'm backing up have 2Gbps connections, yet having cheap but fast backup storage with a 2Gbps connection can be quite expensive unless I don't know of the good ones?
Ps I already have bare metal backup hosted in the cloud for primary backup which is already extremely fast, and so if too much hassle/expensive can just drop the secondary backup with Hetzner/JetBackup.
I recently got a server (AX41-NVMe) with Plesk at Hetzner. Via the DNS console I added the base domain name, where I also want to reach the server, and that works fine.
What I'm running into now is Hetzner telling me to manually add all domain names to the DNS console in order to use them with the server. But that's crazy, isn't it? There are hosting companies that also rent the servers and they cannot manually add every domain name in the DNS console, I think.
I'm not used to it that way either. The server I rent from Leaseweb allows me to simply add a domain name to cPanel and it will be automatically recognized by the worldwide DNS servers.
For me the Hetzner DNS console is not a workable solution in this way. So I thought to solve it with the Plesk extension for Digital Ocean. Works great! But unfortunately no more than 50 domain names are allowed to be added to their DNS. I want to add 100 domains, so this solution doesn't work either.
So my question to you is:
How can I make my domain names reachable, without manually adding them all to Hetzner's DNS console?
Looking to rent some dedicated storage servers with the following specs
- 4 servers
- 12-18 cores
- 64* or 128gb ram
- 80-100TB - SATA HDD/each + OS disks 250-500SSD
- 5 to 10gbps uplink unmetered
- Location [US] [EU] - [any State/City]
We would need an internal network connecting all these systems together @ 5-10gbps. Also, we would likely be looking to upgrade our external bandwidth over time.
[contract time] 2+ years / paid monthly
if anyone knows good providers please <<post here>>
Hi All,
I need a server (to start with) where I can do solution demos and build acceptance platform to perform upgrades etc.
For example, say a hosting company wants to design a solution where they want to move into ceph and openstack . and want a demo of how it looks like and how it works .. those are built virtually .. so this server will host a lot of virtual machines .. like 3x controllers, 3x ceph mons, 4x ceph osd, 4x hypervisors , 1x storage, 1x router , 3x object storage etc .. . you get the idea..
I already have a few servers from a provider, but the prices are getting higher, so I am just checking out what I can get. (maybe I am paying more)
Requirements:
at least 24 threads .. the more the better .. but not more than 40 threads ( can be amd or intel )
1x ssd disk for the OS (can be 480gb min) and 2x 1 TB nvme .. ( i do not need raid , this has no customer data)
128 gb of ram
Unmanaged
kvm/idrac access preferred . but not a necessity. OS to be installed is ubuntu-focal minimum with only ssh enabled via ssh-key
Bandwidth -- 99% incoming -- imagine 20-30 virtual-machines doing apt-get every week or doing git clone from github every few-days as a part of their build .. .. the only ports open = ssh and https ( say 1-2 hours per month, when a public demo is required) ...
IPs - one for the main server, 3-4 additional
Location: Europe preferred, but US is also OK.
Please do not ask me for a budget. But feel free to post your recommendations.
Thanks.
Hi everyone,
I have dedicated server with cloudlinux, specs:
Intel Xeon E3-1230 v5 Quad-Core
8GB DDR4 SDRAM
2 x SSD (+240 GB SSD) (+Software RAID 1)
I wanna use it for shared hosting with whmcs. I need recommendation, about the best resources limit for 3 hosting plans with setting up prices too?
Example:
Plan1: 10GB,
Plan2: 20GB,
Plan3: 35GB storage.
I know most of the regular small websites are no more than 1 or 2GB, but there are people that use a lot of storage too, due to not cleaning their emails ...etc.
How many accounts i can host on it? I am not planning on having 2000 accounts on it either
Thanks!
