Alternative to a Hetzner's Dedi Server in USA?

Hello Community,

Googling for Dedicated Baremetal I found the URL wholesaleinternet.net

Pricing seems ok but what about the service and support?, anyone here tried this provider before?, any feedback or suggestion about using or avoiding them?.

Thanks in advance :-D

Hello, I am looking for a good server to run bigbluebutton on.
There will be max 400 users active at the same time.

I was thinking of these dedicated servers:

Dedi-1:

- CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2690 (or E5-2690v2)
- 64GB 10600R ECC Registered 4x 16GB
- Raid controller Dell PERC H310
- 1Gbit/s up and down
- 2x 1TB SSD


Dedi-2:

- CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2690v4
- 64GB DDR4
- Raid controller Dell PERC H310
- 1Gbit/s up and down
- 2x 1TB SSD

Can the Dedi-1 server with the E5-2690 handle this?
If you have a other suggestion please let me know. But the CPU needs to be from the Xeon E5 Family.

Hi all,

I'm new here and this my first post

So I'd like to get my own dedicated server and set it up at home to be used for games only but I have no idea what kind of specs that is needed when it comes to servers and the distribution of system resources such as CPU, RAM etc. Storage is self explained obviously.
I'm looking to host like a Minecraft server, 7 days to die server, Rust server etc but in general, if possible to say, how many game servers can you run on a single machine?
What is a good server Intel Xeon CPU these days that is not overkilling my needs to run a few game servers on the machine? Is 64 GB of RAM enough to start with?
What is best for my needs when it comes to the server type like a tower or a rack?

I'm just trying to get an estimated cost to set this all up and i'm a bit overwhelmed what is enough and not so my apologies if I don't provide much information so if you need any more details in order to assist, let me know and I'd be happy to be more specific in the topic .
Internet speed is not an issue as I have 1 Gbit up and down.

Thanks in advance!

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>>

love from

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.

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.

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?

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.

I was a Happy Hetzner Customer from Last 2 Years but they recently changed their Setup Price for IP Address and Its too Much. Any Likewise Provider with Similar Pricing or Like OVH Types?
Also, Preferred Providers which give at least 48 hours for response in Case of Abuse Reports. Because as You can see, Hetzner only gives 24 hours and if not replied, They'll just suspend!
Let me know if You know any Providers?

When I see a dedi advertised with, say 4-6 nvme drives, are the drives likely to be individually hot swap-able1 or are they buried inside the chassis and attached to the mobo like desktop pc's?

Ask the provider, I know.....but I'd like to save time and know my chances beforehand as asking too much feel like trolling them.

Am I better off going the colo route for this requirement? I'll do it if I have to but I prefer the dedi route if possible.
