thanks

depends where you want it - but I would probably say leaseweb/ovh for that price.

i forget to tell i would prefer unlimited traffic to speed

You won't get anything decent dedicated for 40 euros that is unlimited. Certainly nothing from leaseweb or OVH.

You could try xirvik semi-dedicated, those you will certainly get a decent transfer and still OK HDD space.

Or one of our 2009+ plans which are OVH and unlimited too, though you'd get more HDD but less RAM (not a problem if you don't care about peak speed but more average transfer).

Otherwise you can try fastsh.it but they don't have any VPS free currently, but the weekend is coming up so you could get lucky then.

40 euro is not a small amount

anyway it all depends on which tracker u want to use the seedbox mainly.

1 gbps is required for SCC, revtt and bitmetv

otherwise normal seedbox will do

and if u are looking for overall peformance in this price

go for https://www.ovh.co.uk/products/dedicated_offers.xml

the first one.

half the world is a reseller of ovh and server.lu

setup fees are high and u will have to pay taxes also, but if u can manage servers than this is the best.
as ovh service is really bad.

if u have any problems in handling servers based on linux just pm me and i will help u out with almost every thing except hardware problems.

this is expensive but a great seedbox with good speed.

11.5 mbps guaranteed up and down, if u put the right torrent at the right time.

boomsat
03-18-2010, 02:04 PM
tks for the replys i went with http://ultraseeds.org
1gbps server lets see if its good i will make a new thread later to let u know the speeds xD

BABBY
03-18-2010, 02:34 PM
this is very good offer, just if u can pm me ss of this seedbox i would be thankfull, just try to use scc archive section
pick up the torrents as soon as they are relased and then ckeck the speed.

this will push your seed box to its limit.

if recomend u that u purchase the second one.

if u give me great reviews than i would also like to try this out, next month

Thelen

Well you asked for unlimited and you certainly won't get that from ultraseeds who are obviously using OVH. But enjoy it anyway, GBit can be much better than a dedicated 100Mbit :)

To my mind the better solution is http://www.seedbox.org.ua/

I’ve been using it for a while so here are my impressions.

Well, to tell the truth I’m quite experienced seedbox user, I’ve got through a lot of services including ovh, xirvik, feral and now I’ve tried new one - seedbox.org.ua.

There is just Russian localization but staff can speak English. All questions I had I got the answer to. So, do not hesitate and write to manager and ask all the questions.
I got dedicated SX20+ pack to get what I need (1TB HDD, 1GB RAM, personal IP),
…and speed really great and fantastic. Here is some shots:

http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/9159/clipm.th.jpg (http://img179.imageshack.us/i/clipm.jpg/)
I suppose it can beat any nowadays great services like ovh, xirvik etc .

If you're using .ru or .ua-based trackers - as with your screenshot - then everything should be fine with seedbox.org.ua. Once you have to seed for international trackers things are going worse, for example, I get just 1MBps download speed from 1 seedbox.org.ua user, so I need about 10 .ua seedboxes to max out my OVH server connection.

The seedbox servers are located in data center, there is no matter what tracker you are using.

The seedbox servers are located in data center, there is no matter what tracker you are using, here you are a few screens from private international tracker hdbits.org in order to prove my words:

Just 23MBps down on a 1Gbps seedbox from 34 seeders while most of them are seedboxes?
And still no more than 1MBps to a single peer?

Anyway the question was what's the best seedbox for a cheap price, and the UA-boxes you're speaking about are obviously the top configurations like sx20 or higher, so you have to pay 59$/mth even when buying the service for 3+ months, which isn't cheap.

That was just the regular screen which I took in 1 sec, to show the peer list, that they are not UA or RU located. Speeds can really be much higher and not only down but as well up. Comparing seedbox.org.ua service with its more famous rivals from West, especially regarding SAS50 pack (may bring 40-50MBps up) it becomes obvious that the price is much lower but the service is on the high level.
P.S. Just another few screens

All the screenshots above taken from different boxes (different torrents + different trackers). So I suggest you're either the owner of seedbox.org.ua or just a dedicated friend who didn't experience much with torrenting and prefers to buy from a mate.

Screen #1 demonstrates a standard 100Mbps connection while in competition to other seedboxes. Not bad but 1Gbps plan was declared at the site.
Screen #2 taken from another box shows your typical torrent activity, all torrents belong to Russian trackers, so it's no surprise having 200Mbps due to local peers.

And stop using DHT feature with private trackers, it usually leads to a ban.

Screen #2 taken from another box shows your typical torrent activity, all torrents belong to Russian trackers, so it's no surprise having 200Mbps due to local peers.
The second screen is actually showing, that ovh.net person is downloading from seedbox.org.ua with 7,1 MBps, that disproves your previous statement about high speed only for ua,ru-trackers but for OVH.



Screen #1 demonstrates a standard 100Mbps connection while in competition to other seedboxes.
The first screen shows the upload speed twice higher (12,2 MBps) then download. And that is a significant indicator for such private tracker as SCC (the screen is up from there).


Not bad but 1Gbps plan was declared at the site.
The site declares specific speeds, they are for SX20+ - ~20MBps and for SAS50 - ~50MBps. You probably should know that any 1 GBit service can not guarantee 80-90 MBps speeds. The 'trouble-zone' of every 1 Gbit service - is HDD system, and its efficiency IOPS, the discs can not accumulate those speed that is given by the service.

And stop using DHT feature with private trackers, it usually leads to a ban.

The seedbox.org.ua service is adjusted in such a way, when the DHT is forbidden in torrent (marked with private flag) the box automatically disable the feature, when not - the DHT is functioning.

All the screenshots above taken from different boxes (different torrents + different trackers). So I suggest you're either the owner of seedbox.org.ua
The screens are made by seedbox.org.ua service after my request.

Hmm, fellas ... Actually i got SX20+ dedicated server. At first, i could not imagine to spend that much money ... friend of mine wa trying to hook me up to the newsgroups like for ages (there was just $35 for the diamond account) But after short usage and support level i think someone has to shoot me before i will let it go!

I cannot argue that trackers deployed in UA-IX and folk using ftp over local networks have advantage but i use like 30 trackers and have a few Sysops as my buddies and they have only good experience with that service.
So i naturally spread a good news. Even put the ad on my tracker. So, i would say that support is superb like 24 7 365
BitMeTV, AL, hdbits.org CHD HDC and many other ones beautiful places have no problem with this service and i didn't heard any complaint on TPS rep board ...

If you have any question feel free to call me: mft39anton (Skype) Voice: English, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian, Korean (limited), Type: Chinese (limited)

Have a good one ...

:lol: Your joking right?

Ok let's take your basic plan here....

Copper Plan
100 Gigabytes DiskSpace
Unlimited Bandwidth
6 Active Torrents
$19.95 USD Per Month

So I am assuming this is on a 100Mbit line. So the most torrents I can have active at one time is 6! Did you know Feral Hosting offers....

110 Gibabyte Diskspace
Unlimited Bandwidth download/upload
Unlimited Torrents
$15.00 USD Per Month

Soooo not only do they offer more space, they don't cap your number of torrents, and it's $4.95 cheaper a month. This is a tough decision for me to decide on who to go with.

I prefer seedplace. I've experienced with 4 service providers and this is my last one. Overall, $38 euro a month is ok, low ram such as 1GB and 1.2Ghz CPU but still does the job properly. It really depends on what trackers / torrents / TB you after, normally you should reach to 3TB above easily.

I've tried them while looking for a cheap seedbox and not just them, since some time I realized that small shared plans are just wasting of my money and time. I really think if you are trying to rent seedbox you have to look for a dedicated one.

Depends how much you think you will upload during the month. I am on a shared box with 5-6 other people and managed to up almost 800GB to 4 different trackers last month. Not too bad for $13. I'm sure I could have gotten that total higher but I don't jump on every new torrent that comes out.

If your looking for a seedbox I have been using http://www.seedbox.org.ua/ the speeds are awesome. I am on the SAS50 package and have seen speeds of 63mb/s download and over 30mb/s upload! I am a USA user and can max out my home connection thru ftp with no problems. Ive had OVH servers before and my ftp speeds were not that great. The seedboxes have no data limit unlike the 3TB OVH seedboxes have so you dont need to worry about usage limits. They have different plans available and the prices are good.

Well, I've also have some previous experience using low-end shared plans of different companies - the result - I dumb them and decided that only the dedicated seedboxes may bring me needed output on those private trackers that I'm in. Now I'm with seedbox.org.ua, as I've already written, and I'm fully satisfied receiving easily 20 MB/sec up/down.

Xirvik
http://www.xirvik.com/

I was impressed with the site, for a seedbox host the site is very professional looking. The selection of semi-dedicated and dedicated servers is good and I felt the price to be extremely fair. I started out with a German hosted SEMIDEDI LARGE @ 24.95 per month and it has great speeds (reaching up to 10MB/s down and up). Over time the 75GB of space just wasn't enough because I do a lot of HD content and with BluRay encodes being upwards of 15GB for a movie you can see 75GB would run out quick. I upgraded to a US hosted SEMIDEDI EXTRALARGE @ 29.95 per month (a reasonably low increase in cost for almost double the HDD space) again the speeds are great at around 10MB/s down and up and with it being US hosted and me living in the US the FTP speeds transferring off of and onto my box were noticably increased compared to the German hosted seedbox. It has unlimited active torrents, unlimited bandwidth per month only 3 slots per server and the rutorrent interface is clean and simple to use (basically utorrent but web-based)

I've been using Xirvik now for around 3 months and have only one thing negative to say and that is when I switched from German to US hosted, my seedbox can no longer connect to Waffles.fm for torrenting. For whatever reason a US hosted box is blacklisted at Waffles and a German is not, so just a warning to anyone looking at Xirvik, if you use Waffles DO NOT get a US hosted Xirvik seedbox. Every other tracker I use: HDME, BtN, TV, IPT, AHD, What.cd, HD-T all connect and work great. Aside from the Waffles.fm issue I've got 0 complaints about the Xirvik service itself, from their seedbox features to the pricing to the speeds, it's all great.

GetASeedbox.com is cheap and good, 11euros or 18euros if you need more hdd space. Unlimited bandwidth and speeds better than 5MB/s many times. At least for my account.

Thelen
10-10-2010, 11:15 AM
http://www.seedbox.org.ua/ is Russian based, and even though they apparently use Level3, you won't get very good speeds to anything outside EU, and certainly those sort of speeds will go downhill once more users are using it (they don't say how many per server, but in SX20+ case it is 8 users).

Thelen
10-12-2010, 11:06 PM
Yea you get 40MB/s, but for that price you will get far more site ratio with a dedicated 100Mbit, or even 3 smaller Gbit from elsewhere.

Yea you get 40MB/s, but for that price you will get far more site ratio with a dedicated 100Mbit.

Please explain. Last time I calculated, 100 megabits = 12.5 megabytes and 40 megabytes = 320 megabits. 100 megabits is over three (3) time less than 320 megabits.

Or perhaps it's the otherway around with the custom kernel of yours :D?

Yea you get 40MB/s, but for that price you will get far more site ratio with a dedicated 100Mbit.

Please explain. Last time I calculated, 100 megabits = 12.5 megabytes and 40 megabytes = 320 megabits. 100 megabits is over three (3) time less than 320 megabits.

Or perhaps it's the otherway around with the custom kernel of yours :D?

40MB/s peak, not sustained.... The HW they are using won't do that. Not to mention they only have about 10TB BW budgeted per person ;)

I have tried ultraseeds, seedunlimited & seedmonster. I found seedmonster to be the best. Insane hashing speeds and prompt service. The owner is a honest & a good guy. I am enclosing a screenshot of the upload speeds.
