Hetzner's 64GB RAM server
This seems incredibly cheap. Has anyone gave this offer a shot http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produkte_rootserver/ex10 ?

It is hetzner, they aren't bad. Just the setup fee is the real killer.
Hetzner is a moderately cheap and reliable provider in Europe. They're pretty similar to OVH anyways.
I think OVH has better BW overall. That was true 2 years or so ago when I checked both.

Hm, I'd have to get a Hetzner server in order to test that theory out.
Currently OVH's Canada Bandwidth is... interesting. Routing to Google is weird and takes 80 ms to ping.
France OVH Bandwidth is pretty solid but again some of the routing is kind of odd for me (but hey, cheap servers).
OVH has a way better network now, yeah.
Ovh has way more torrents/p2p in the dc which might attract more ddos. Never had a problem with Hetzner.
I feel like hetzner takes abuse much more seriously than ovh.
This is a real killer
"1 Gbit connected
at 100 Mbit"
So it's only 100Mbps
introducing new vps host in germany....
Hetzner accepted Tor Exit nodes for many months and it sent abuse to me. In both cases I replied and sent them a copy, everything was cool.
I highly recomend them for that, however, BW was not the best quality, with big fluctuations, while in OVH that didnt happen.
I cancelled because i couldnt use the bw to full, not because Tor wasnt allowed or I was kicked for abuse complaints.
That was more than 2 years ago, i think, things could have changed.

I am not really sure that OVH's network is better than Hetzner, atleast wasnt 1-2 years ago when I used the both providers. OVH does have a shit load of local peering, though.
I had one of the EX series with ECC RAM and had no problems. It said it was on a 100mbit link but mine was connected at a full gbit and could pull 90MB/s down in speed tests.
I currently have one of the storage ones (XS 13) but have just had some issues with drives... I'm still in the middle of recovery but they connected up a IP console thing for me and have been very fast in support responses. The whole interface for management is very good as well.
Only downside I see with their dedicated offers is most don't have ECC RAM.
Also to get lots of extra features you need to pay another 15 euro a month for the Flexi Pack thing.
