Just wanted to share my first dip of the toe into seedboxes. It might be useful for someone that was in my position... I read most of the seedbox reviews on here and spent some time on their websites. Xirvik has good reviews and a good payment option.
I have rented a budget seedbox from Xirvik for $4.95 for 1 week.
I get 20GB HDD space, 3 torrents and 100Mbit/sec up and down.
I have had it for 24 hours now and already boosted the 2 trackers I mainly use with over 30GB each so far. At this rate, I will only need the seedbox for the rest of the week, and then rent it again when my ratio gets lower.
Althogh this is the absolute minimum and budget option, it is an amazing difference to my usual ISP speeds, as well as being able to upload 1:1 with my downloads.
So, if you are out there looking at seedboxes, I recommend you find one that can give you 1 week at a time. If you are not a heavy user, this might just do the trick every couple of weeks.
Any of the veterans out there can suggest a better option for a beginner like me?
