Looking for Dedicated Server in West Coast (LA) under $50

Looking for a dedicated server to replace my current setup. I currently run a dedicated box with kvm access so I can install my own OS, X3470 CPU @ 2.9GHz, 16GB RAM, and (1) 256GB SSD, and (1) 2TB HDD, all for $40 a month. I've been with my current provider for 1 year, and I plan on being with my next provider for at least a year.
What's important to me is ability to run my own OS (I run windows server 2016), excellent peering connection speed, location based out of west coast USA, and SSD drive(s). Additional storage would be nice, but I'm trying to be realistic in this price range.

lol good luck
SSD is not a requirement.
You're getting a hell of a deal and I don't really think you'll find much better combining both a 256gb ssd and 2tb at $40/mo.
I'd keep what you've got unless you're willing to pay annually in which case providers may be willing to work with you to an extent.
I'm more than willing to pay annually, and the SSD is not a requirement.
Looking for one too in the west coast, doesn't need a large drive. It's rare to find LET offer in the west coast thought.
Plex + GDrive?
#dicks
Nope, Gitlab mainly, blogs etc. Live in Hong Kong; east coast and Europe are too far away yet local server is too expensive. We watch movies from Youku, Tencent, etc., Plex is not popular.
Could do the following at Los Angeles, CA
E3-1240v2 / 32 GB RAM / 2 x 1 TB / $69/month
or
E3-1270v2 / 16 GB RAM / 2 x 2 TB HDD / $59/month
or
E3-1240v2 / 16 GB RAM / 500 GB HDD (or 2x 240 GB SSD) / $49/month
these are good prices for LA
Not exactly what you want, but you might have a look at Quadranet's current LEB special and see if you can add some RAM. It's in LA and they have a good, stable network.

Dedicated IPMI and IPv6?
@qps
@talklowend QuickPacket has E3-1270v2, 16GB RAM, 1TB HD or 128GB SSD at $40 per month. Upgrade from 1TB to 2TB HD for $5 more.
IPMI included and /64 or /48 of IPv6 as well.
Thank You for the mention! I'd be happy to customize a dedicated server plan - [email protected] is my email
I have no idea what I would do with a /48 when all I need are, like, maybe ten.
That's very tempting though.
hehe, could do 10 IPv6 if you want
stop spamming your 3 line sig
Second quadrant they seem to know what their doing in LA
@qps How do I get that deal?
Use coupon code UZAYFP4616
Is that 1tb in raid 1?
No, it is a single 1TB drive.
Maybe you can contact @SpeedBus from https://crowncloud.net/dedicated_servers.php for special offer?
