Thread: SeedKing.org: Seedboxes for the heavy torrent user

After months of testing (thanks TI members) we are ready to open our doors. It has been a fun and sometimes stressful journey! Our site is a little behind schedule and will be up in the next few days. If you decide to visit seedking.org what you see there was just me fooling around. The real site is fully integrated with WHMCS and doesn't look anything like what you see there now :)

Join us on IRC (There will be seedbox giveaways available only to our loyal IRC idlers :D )

Channel: #SeedKing

Some things you might be interested to know about SeedKing.org:

- All our servers run on RAID 10. Extremely important as without it the harddrives would be overloaded and bottleneck at not even half of our connection speed. This also guarantees the safety of your data in the event of a failure.
- Every seedbox is its own VPS. We do not put multiple users inside a VPS! This allows us to have full control and make sure you get what you pay for.
- We use multiple combined techniques to ensure that connection speeds are not exceeded by any user.
- All of our servers are monitored 24/7 at 5 minute intervals and if there is a problem we are notified immediately VIA SMS, E-mail, and Iphone App.
- We offer 3 lines of support. Live chat, ticket system, and forums. Fast friendly support is what you should have and we will make every effort to give it to you!
- We never oversell our servers. In fact we undersell them a little to ensure maximum performance for all our customers.
- All servers are on 1gbit connections.
- No server has more than 8 seedboxes on it.
-Every seedbox has its own dedicated IP.
- No setup fees and no waiting. Setup is automated and instant!

Our Policy

We run on a strict no BS policy. We will always answer you truthfully and straight up. If we screw up we are going to say "hey we F***** up and do our best to fix it.
We will be offering only 1 seedbox plan at the start and it will be our smallest. Here is what it looks like.

Fast Five ($50 USD per month)
Storage: 950 GB
Users: 2 user per disk and 8 users maximum per server
Connection Speed: 120 mbit (Guaranteed For your box) Burstable to 250 mbps
Connectivity: 1gbps
RAM: 3GB Dedicated 4GB Burstable.
Interfaces: rtorrent, rutorrent, avalanche, Usenet SABnzbd, custom file manager. Also on the seedboxes main page you have the ability to change your password, stop and start rtorrent, start and stop SABnzbd.
Access: http, https, vsftp, SSH (root)
Control Panels: You have your SolusVM and WHMCS control panels. These give you complete control over your box. Reboots, OS re-installs, console access, and much more. See below for some screens.
Public Trackers: Allowed.
Bandwidth: Unlimited. No super fine print or tricky wording. Straight up unlimited.

People have asked me "why don't you offer smaller plans?". Smaller plans are just not feasible without sacrificing performance. To offer smaller plans we have to either put multiple boxes inside each VPS or oversell the servers. I will not do either...ever.

Here are some screens of the interfaces and control panels.

120 Mbit guaranteed and burstable up to 1 Gbit if BW is available or it's strictly limited to 120 Mbit?

It's not burstable. We did test with burstable but found that large spikes in IO caused by the bursts affected performance across the entire node even in RAID 10. it also causes havoc with maintaining a strict cap on speed when not bursting.

Site should be "roughly" ready by tomorrow. Also going to introduce some group rates and "ratio fixer" servers (rent by day).
