VPS for Backup hosting

edited April 2016 in Requests

I am after something really cheap to store backups of customer sites. I already have a set of backups in 2 locations (1 in Milano -provided by Prometeus- and one at my home -on my Pi-) just looking to add more backup locations.
My requirements:

CPU & RAM: Don't really care, as long as I can run an ftp server (to upload backups) and a small http/php stack to check free space etc (so even 64mb RAM will probably do).

HDD: 50GB at least.

Monthly Bandwidth: 50GB at least (match the provided HDD)

Port Speed: 10mbit will do.

IP: NAT IPv4 will do (could also use IPv6, if NATed IPv4 is not available)

Preferable locations: Canada, Iceland, Austria, Switzerland, Ukraine or France.

Basically my only requirement is to match the 50GB of space and the location. I don't really even care for great uptime. I will use it for backup of backups of websites.

As for price: I would prefer to pay yearly, and can afford up to $10 at this point for the whole term.

I'm probably asking for too much, but can't hurt to ask.

    RamNode have SSD-cached OpenVZ, 80gb storage, 500gb bw, 1 gbps(?) for $15/yr. You should really go up $5 because RamNode is soon removing them and it's probably one of the best offers. Also lots of location available, serious company and good support.

    Maybe coupon SSD10 works, then the price is around $13/yr

    RamNode 128Mb CVZ with 80Gb of SSD cached storage is the best deal you're gonna get.
    Use ANY10 coupon for a 10% discount, and your annual price drops down to $13.50.

  • Thank you both. Although RamNode doesn't fit my location requirements, I'll consider their NL location if no other recommendations come up

    Second one, though slightly over your budget at ~18EUR/Yr could be - https://billing.internetovizija.com/cart/&step=3

    Dedicated CPU: 1 x 1.90 GHz
    RAM: 512 MB
    Storage: 512 GB

  • Thank you, sounds great. Is this provider good? Stable? With these specs I might as well move my owncloud there!

    Well reputed provider. Using a vps from them for the last 3-4 months, no downtime. Will be getting a couple more next week.

    Thanks, I was looking around for internetovizija, and didn't find anything (in engish at least). Will look it up.

    They have been known to do custom packages that may fit the OPs bill.
