- What is your budget per month?
- Somewhere around $20 USD
- How much disk space do you need?
- Storage is not much of an issue as 99% of my data is transferred to my GSuite drive and then deleted immediately after downloading.
- Are you looking for shared or dedicated seedbox?
- Indifferent
- Particular uses, streaming? VPN? One-click ease? Racing?
- I run NZBGet, Radarr, Sonarr, and NZBHydra 2 on my seedbox. I have an automated setup that will copy downloaded movies/shows to my GSuite drive and then delete it from the seedbox. My new seedbox would need to do the same.
--
Other important criteria might include, you might touch on, is for example:
- What is the primary reason for getting a seedbox? DMCA? Ratio? Wife discovered Porn? Please expand.
- The primary reason I'm looking to move away from Seedboxes.cc is performance. Specifically, hard drive I/O performance seems to be a bottleneck. Since all the software is run from the Seedbox, when NZBGet is unpacking a download it can cause everything else to slow to a crawl and/or crash. I'm hoping there's an option out there with better performance to remedy this.
- Location (yours and/or the vendors)? Most seedboxes are concentrated in Europe (France, Netherlands, Germany)
- I am in the US, but location isn't really an issue since I'm not downloading to my local machine from the seedbox. The only thing that matters is fast speed between the seedbox and my usenet providers and from the seedbox and my GSuite drive.
- Particular speed (100M, 1G, 10G, Ludicrous Speed, etc)? Slow, fast, fastest.
- I want the fastest speed possible. This is my #1 priority other than improving the performance of the box when multiple things are happening on the installed software.
- Do you use public trackers extensively?
- No, I do not use public trackers at all. I only use one private tracker, and even that is rare.
- How much experience do you have with seedboxes, linux, and alike? Need a lot of handholding?
- I am much more comfortable than I was when I first signed up for Seedboxes.cc. One of the main reasons I chose them was their UI and ease of installation and use. I'm to a point now where I'm comfortable enough with the command line to follow guides that walk me through different commands needed to install/configure software.
- Is your location problematic? e.g. I'm at university. I'm one of three people on the island of Yap.
- No
- Particular payment methods the vendor needs to accept: bitcoin, paypal, paysafecard, Turkish Lire?
- PayPal or CC is preferred (no bitcoin)
- Particular content: Games, TV shows, Anime; Movies; Remuxes; the oeuvre of Fatty Arbuckle?
- 1080p TV Shows & 1080p Blu-Ray Remuxes
- Using problemsome trackers like public ones or challenging trackers like RED and CHD?
- No
- Any idea on how much bandwidth you need a month? 1TB; 3TB; 30TB?
- It does not appear as though my use case scenario uses much bandwidth (at least from monitoring my Seedboxes.cc bandwidth usage).
- Are you a paranoiac, need special safety assurances?
- No
- Other more unique requirements? You want to run a website too; Azureus is your favorite client, can't live without it; Or god forbid you really, really need Windows.
- No, nothing other than what was previously mentioned.
