Thread: HSB (HostingSharedBox) Review

Name: HSB(HostingSharedBox) Trial :)
Speed: 2-3 people on 100mbit dedi server on hot torrents ~8mbps ul/dl
Support: 10/10 always there when needed
GUI: I chose Deluge. Very responsive
Speed of GUI: 10/10
Package: 100 mbit
Price: Trial ($21.50 monthly)
Overall rating: 9.5/10


Thank you HSB for kindly gifting this seedbox to me for a trial :)



The trial had around 250gb HDD space, the Gui was always responsive.

Compared to other companies who often put many users on one Kimsufi 2G, HSB used Kim 16G servers which have much more power and will not slow down your seedbox in the slightest bit.
If you want a shared seedbox with lots of power for torrenting tasks, Check this company out

Ok, I'll write my review of HSB.

Name: HSB (HostingSharedBox)
Speed of the box: 6 people shared 1Gbit/s connection, i got 54MB/s maximum down and 34MB/s maximum up.
Support: - (I did not contact them as i had no problem with this trial)
GUI: ruTorrent v3.3
Speed of GUI: 9/10 (I guess processor speed affects the GUI loading speed. Sometime, processor is 100% used)
Package: 1Gbit/s, around 50GB HDD per person. Trial
Price: Trial (No idea about the price)
Overall rating: 9.0/10 (I can give 10 out of 10 if they had a faster processor(s) than this. Sometime, processor usage stay remain at 100%)

The one and only problem i got is, the processor speed. It's not always remain at 100% (Around 70% as an average). Download and Upload speed are just awesome! I got very satisfied speeds even when i use Romanian trackers. Well seeded torrents can hit over 50MB/s easily. If you guys are looking for new box company, try HSB once.

Name: Hosting Share Box
Speed of the box: 1Gbit/s connection
Support: Never asked for as never needed it.
GUI: ruTorrent v3.3
Speed of GUI: 9/10 excellent i would say since it would rarely take time that would be irritating. and i think that my own home connection could have been a factor at time.
Package: 1Gbit/s,50GB HDD per person trial that was so wonderfully extended.
Price: NA

Overall Impression:
it was the first time that i have used 1G connection and it would be only fair to say that i was amazed. at the very moment i started to download 4 torrents at once with it, i got solid 10 plus Mb/s download speed on each. but that was nothing as soon two of the torrents started to upload at 20 plus Mb/s. on total the upload speed at times could hover about 60 Mb/s and download never went over 40 Mb/s but i think that it wont be hard to get twice as much speed only if you are the only using it and also the peers could match you. here i would say that the best upload speed i got was on torrents that i uploaded and hence were not dependent on the speeds of other i was downloading from. secondly, the best thing about it was that "stability" of upload speed. during the few hours that would monitor the utorrent regularly, i have observed that the upload speed rarely wavered and on at least three torrents it kept a permanent grip of 19-22 Mb/s for hours.

and yes, as the member above said, the processor load invariably hovered around 80% but i never experienced any worsening effect on the whole.
unfortunately, i was very very busy at the time and couldnt utilize the seedbox fully (the best way to get most of a seedbox is to grab a torrent within few minutes or , as they say, when its very hot) but even then the seedbox was able to give me around 1.5 Tb buffer on 3 trackers. i am sure if i were not busy and have grabbed "hot" torrents, the figure would have been around 3 Tb or more.

great experience indeed.

Ok folks ive been testing seedboxes renting/signing up for month from several different places for the last few months, ive rented from 4 companies the last 2 months and ill tell you right now the "1000s" 1gig line from sharedhosting is the TOPDOG of them all.... The speeds were insane.... i easily hit speeds of 60mb down & 60mbs up. For those that dont beleive me, while i always take screen shots and they will be posted below...
In my screen shots i was doing some crazy cross seeding to my 3 best trackers, i hit the torrent the first 5 minutes it was posted to the sites & ended up seeding about 1tb total to all 3, before i stopped my torrents....

Let me tell you for the price of this seedbox, you can not go wrong... I have paid close to the same price for 100mbps line getting 10mb up & down as i did for this 1 gig line.... This box will blow your socks off i guarantee you....
you cant Go wrong for the price, lets just say theres a good chance i will be staying with Sharedhosting for awhile because its going to be hard to beat what you are getting from sharedhosting.....

Now these are screen shots of my UPLOAD, because obvs if i am getting 60mbs up you can just imagine what you can get for downlaod....
