What's your hoster?

 

I'm using contabo and the VPS I got is advertised as 1 Gigabit. When I do a speedtest or use iperf3 to connect to public servers I get pretty close to 1 Gigabit. But from my residential IP the speed drops down to 100-250 Mbit/s. My home internet connection can handle 500 Mbit just fine.

I'm looking for a new hoster with a better network connection. What real world speeds do you get with your server?

Check out Wolfgang's Channel on YouTube. He goes very in depth on low power consumption home servers.

Exact Audio Copy and Qobuz.

Honestly the most complete source of high res music is private trackers like redacted. You can download all the stuff from qobuz and bandcamp, every CD rip you can think of in bit perfect quality of and even very good vinyl rips. You basically can download any version ever released from any album.

 

I'm currently using a VPS from contabo and am curious if I would get better performance CPU and disk I/O wise because of the dedicated resources. The bigger VPS from contabo seem to be in a similar ballpark to the cheapest options available in the hetzner server auction when it comes to corecount, ram and disk size and price.

Don't do this. Running unpatched software is a recipe for disaster.
