Dedicated Server
Looking for a dedicated server to run vm's for personal usage.
Spec requirements: E3-1230v2 or greater, 16 GB ram or greater, 120 GB ssd + 1 TB hdd, 500mbit unmetered (note: will push about 1 TB a day in bandwidth), /29 IPv4, and native IPv6 would be nice, otherwise announce my subnet (loa included) available
Current server I have averages about 850 GB of bandwidth a day.

Budget and location?
Under $250 a year (canadian dollars)
I prefer north america, but not picky.
So about $14USD per month?
WSI, Datashack, etc. Hard to get E3 at this price though.
$250 CAD (~$176) won't even get you a E3-1220.
$250/yr is a bit underpriced, I'll admit. Max I can do on budget is $500/year.
So roughly $42/month for E3-1230v2, 16GB RAM, 120GB SSD + 1TB HD, 500MBit unmetered....
OVH can probably do this, but beyond that...... you'll need to raise your budget.
Nope. He wants it in Canadian dollars. He wants E3-1230v2, 16GB RAM, 120GB SSD + 1TB HDD, 500Mb unmetered for ~$30/month. I think we finally found someone that can beat out @MrGeneral.
I really can't go over $500 a year, I can lower the specifications if really must, but those are ideal. I've only got $1,300 but I need at least $500 for other things
With those requirements and pricing in CAD, you should look at SoYouStart.

Exactly in budget.
Missing the IPs (setup fee req) + SSD
Also https://www.ovh.com/ca/en/cloud/instances/ as well, though it does not meet your storage requirements, and is a bit over price limit.
Hmm Impossible.. E3 + Dual HD + 500 Mbps + 26TB Bandwidth...
Edit: Didnt see the second budget, not impossible but almost impossible.
Step up load balancing and get 2 cheaper servers then.
Or soyoustart. Only way
