I’m looking for suggestions please! Need a decent hosting package, currently with Feral who are fine but costly, I need to reduce my spend on this!
Has anyone used bytesized hosting? Are they OK? They have 3TB hosted package for €16 which seems v reasonable and meets my storage needs. From the looks of it you can’t set up a recurring payment (eg SO or DD), though, how do you manage payments?
Anyone suggest an alternative? I’d like Plex and rtorrent as a minimum, but ideally I’d want radarr, sonarr, all the good addons to that whole process.
Are you looking for a ready-made solution (not sure if those even exist for Plex etc but have to ask), or just a VPS + storage and you set everything up yourself?
I’m going to suggest Hetzner first as they are rock-solid and still cheap enough. Yes, I know you can’t host Plex there any longer, but you might want to consider Emby instead.
I have also found Netcup to be quite cheap and very reliable, followed by Ionos and pq.hosting.
On the storage front, a suggestion might be to get a OneDrive family plan (about £50/year on cjs-cdkeys), and use rclone to link all 6 accounts into one mounted drive which will give you a 6TB mount on your server.
If you want faster/more consistent storage (e.g. for 4K content), you might want to be looking at something like Jottacloud or pCloud as OneDrive may not be able to handle that.
