Windows VPS For Public/Private Torrents

I would like to purchase a Windows VPS with Server 2008 R2. I would like this to have at least 250GB of storage space. RAM, processor does not matter.
Also, would like RDP access, if possible.

You might be able to manage this with one of BuyVM's storage plans.
It appears as though they do not support BitTorrent.
If you're going to hammer the node then yeah, they'll come after you. If you're a considerate node neighbour, you'll probably find they don't mind what you're up to. I ran torrents on private trackers over there for a year with no wrist slaps or other interference from the staff.
buyvm allow public/private torrents but just limit the speed
Windows sucks for servers though, especially torrents
Yes you are right only used windows server when i was newbie with server handling.Now i can never think of using windows server ever again.For servers linux is best.
do you have any problem with the host passing on your personal verified details to any copyright holders that complain or do you expect privacy? if it is the former I could make some suggestions.
Hi, you can try ours if you like.
I think I can provide this for you starting from 12 EUR monthly exc. VAT for a KVM VPS (4 cores, 4 GB of RAM and 300 GB of storage) if you are not planning to use the bandwidth thoroughly but that would exclude the license or from €11.99/mo. for 8 GB of RAM and 250 GB of space on a shared RDP system with Windows Server 2012 R2 (includes license). The bandwidth is unmetered for all the plans.
I donot think you need to pay for a rdp feature
Windows already has it

You can take a look at our SB1 plan: https://greencloudvps.com/cart.php?gid=8
1.5GB RAM, 2 cores, 300GB HDD, Windows Server 2008 R2 for $18/month
Are you saying this out of real experience? I personally never had any issues with windows server 2003,2008,2012 and see more logic in this system, linux always makes me waste time troubleshooting random errors while windows just works - ofcourse at the cost of extra hardware resources.
Yeah, maybe it's more because I've been using *nix for some long and everything seems more orderly and structured to me, plus you get to avoid the whole extra resource overhead
With torrents there are a lot of cool ways to scale up to the 50K plus running at a time without losing performance too
Anyone adamant about using windows for this should be using utorrent versions 2.1.x or 2.2.x though, the 3 series is kinda fucked up
With the shared RDP plan, you pay for the RDP access as you don't get full control over the Windows system neither do you get Administrator access, so it's different. I would recommend the thread started a dedicated server however if he would like to enjoy a full speed bandwidth!
