Thread: VPS in the USA?

Anyone know of any VPS here in the USA that will allow torrents? If not, can anyone suggest a good VPS company? I am with ultraseedbox right now, but since Rapidspeeds went under now they have no good plans IMHO. Seems that the UL cap is now 15TB, and I go over that very quickly. Let me know guys!

VarsBox

I haven't personally tried it. But I've heard about it

I think your best bet with a VPS located in the USA would be one from Leaseweb (PowerLoft DC) or from SoftLayer. Both are known for having excellent peering, especially SoftLayer, but it's also very expensive.

You just need to find a provider that also offers USA VPS and most of them host it in the PowerLoft DC from Leaseweb: BoxSlots, Fibrenetworks
Also Leaseweb currently offers a really cheap price on one of their 100TB (bandwidth) Powerloft servers and I think it's also worth checking out.

Well you can checkout PulsedMedia they offer VPS in USA... but I still recommend to get the VPS from Evoswitch,NetherLand!

Link: Personal dedicated servers - 100Mbps, High storage and RAM | Pulsed Media

I checked out all the links you provided me guys, but none offers anything in the USA right now except for Softlayer but I don't even see anything on their website for a VPS.

No, I just meant resellers that offer a VPS from SoftLayer server. I know that UltraSeedbox will offer them very soon and that's a reliable provider, but I don't know when they will be ready.

Leasewebs Powerloft DC is known for not being the best one in concerning peering, in contrast to their Evoswitch DC in the Netherlands.

If you're open to a solution outside of the US, you take a look at this sites offerings. https://bytesized-hosting.com/
I use them and I used to have a VPS from them. And yes, it is configured to be used as a seedbox with your choice of a few clients and a 1gb downlink and a 200mb uplink. I got it to try and get some experience with Linux. But, quickly learned that you can't use a VPS for both seeding and learning Linux, so I went back to a seedbox, and installed VirtualBox so I could learn Linux without affecting anything else.

@pathfinderR1 - what distro linux is bytesized using?
