I have a dedicated server at Hetzner for 25 euro a month. I get an i7, 16 GB of RAM and 2x3 TB in RAID 1, which is nice since I'm hosting large media files.

I'm currently sitting at 4.2 TB of outbound traffic for the last 30 days, so I still have plenty of room to scale up my outbound traffic before I hit any limits. But most importantly my costs are fixed.

How reliable do you find Hetzner servers to be?
Quite. I did have some issue with my server becoming unreachable every couple of weeks at the start of the year for a couple of times. Not sure if it was a fault that I caused or if there was some kind of a networking issue. I know I tinkered with the server a bit earlier, but it seems to have resolved itself without me really doing anything, so it could really be either way.

One problem is also that apparently some Americans have really bad peering to my server. As an European, I can't really confirm if this is the case, but it's what I've heard.

Thank you
