    =================================
    UPDATE: no more slots available
    =================================


    anyone interested in paying $30/mo (split across 5 users) for:

    AMD X2 4200 Dual Core
    1GB RAM
    300GB HDD
    100Mbit Port
    Unmetered Transfer


    ...from http://www.pixelfxsolution.com/? cost of the server is $150/mo and we can push it to 9TB-10TB/mo. so, if you break it down, each one will get:

    60GB HDD
    2TB datatraffic per month


    not bad for only $30/mo!

    server is located in UK and we'll have Win2k StdEd on it running uTorrent. each user will get his/her own IP and can easily connect to the server remotely via Windows RDC/RDP or RealVNC for example. if you need help in connecting or whatever, just let me know.

    NetLimiter (or other similar program) will be installed to ensure each person will get his/her share of the bandwidth (2TB/mo).

    deal can be found here (pls. see EDIT2 below for changes). must have PayPal and serious inquiries only!


    thank you.




    EDIT: test IP - 66.90.66.1

    EDIT2: i tried ordering the server in my original post but unfortunately, it was already sold to someone else. however, i was given a new offer (see above for the complete server specs): faster processor (dual-core) but slightly less HDD space (100GB less)

    You forgot to mention the $59 setup fee. Who pays that?

    i will. unless of course, the other ppl who will share the server with me would like to share that, too. it's only a one-time payment anyway so it's not so bad if i pay for the set-up fee myself...

    no, they don't scan their customers' HDD for illegal content. i think only DediBox does that.

    i'm planning to share the server with 4 other guys so each will pay $30/mo. however, if only 2 or 3 ppl would like to share this server, that's fine with me too!

    PixelFX offers a true 100Mbit port (burstable to 1Gbit for an additional $45/mo i think) so getting up to 10-11MB/s would NOT be a problem! besides, i don't think any torrent will be able to sustain that speed 24/7! heck, even if it is free leech, after some time, the overall peer speed will drop.

    OK, 1 other guy is in!

    hopefully, we'll get 1 or 2 more so we won't have to pay that much per month for the server...

    think of a seedbox as your PC at home where you upload/download torrents... only it has really really REALLY fast speeds (10-11MB/s)!

    What about the whole principle of not paying for file sharing. For me paying for a seedbox falls in that category, since you're paying to download (and upload) more. I would never pay for a seedbox, as i wouldnt pay for a p2 client or to get in a network. It doesnt make much sense to me. Or is it all just a question of competition? Who downloads more, who uploads more?
