I have been running a dedicated server hosted by hostingbydesign for about a year. Currently hosted in the Netherlands however this results in high ping and latency which is bad for transferring files. Looking to switch to a service closer to me.

I am curious as to others experiences with these services/any recommendations.

How are you transferring the files? If you aren't using segmented/parallel transfers you're gonna be in for a bad time. I'd recommend using mscp (cli/command line tool). I use it often and I max out my local 2.5Gbit line when pulling downloaded ISOs from my box.

What does closer mean? Which country?

Ultraseedbox has served me very well for years. They are the only service I recommend.

Do they have dedicated servers? I couldn't find anything on their website

Been using whatbox for a bit on recommendation from a friend who has used it for a decade or so. I could be crazy but I seem to remember them offering hosting right in the Netherlands in particular.

I’m using whatbox, hosted in the Netherlands. I’ve had the same server with them for more than a year. They gave me a free storage and bandwidth upgrade at one point -they said they upgraded hardware. Nothing but positive experiences. Great speeds for uploading, downloading and downloading to my local device.

I know, I'm a little late

I assume you're in the US? RapidSeedbox offers dedicated servers both in the US and Canada

Unfortunately they are limited in traffic to 10TB per month, unlike their seedboxes
