Let's say if we were to compare vs OVH, well he offers 2GB RAM, 1 vCPU and 25GB SSD storage for $2.5 a month. That's certainly cheap than the $6 at OVH, even if we say that OVH offers 40GB NVMe. For most people the type of storage doesn't matter much except the amount of storage as such. All the more my SSDs have much better benchmarks than those in the OP honestly.
Besides that he offers a 1 Gbps shared uplink compared to 250 Mbps at OVH. Let's say even if OVH offers dedicated uplink, still my friends network never fails as far as I've seen, also it's always 900 Mbps+
Moreover he's a sysadmin and highly reliable.
Well, if he has a website I'll definitely happy to check the offer. It's a very nice offer compared to other provider. I was checking Hetzner yesterday and it has a 2.5 euro/mo so probably about 3.5 USD/mo with the same specs as your friend does. I believe the only different is Hetzner give 40GB SSD which is great!
I'm wondering how much he makes from his dedis tho since dedis is really cost big big money.
Well this is an OVH review page but we're talking about non-OVH VPS so we might get a little bit out of topic. But it might worth to try for another provider who's the cheapest and reliable one
