Hello, I'm pleased to offer you robust seedboxes for an affordable price again! I've been running just fine since last summer and now it's time to get back here on DP with a new topic. The seedboxes are based on rTorrent + wTorrent web interface combination and run on dedicated servers located in the Netherlands and Luxembourg. I am also totally willing to work with you on custom setups to suit your needs - for example Torrentflux-b4rt with an admin account for advanced users and Azureus have been done, not to mention RapidLeech and server-side rarring/unrarring. See my basic plans and common questions below and don't hesitate to contact me (details at the end of this post) if you've got anything like details or a test account to ask -------------------------------------------------- Jouni's seedbox - €20/month 50 GB disk space * Unlimited active torrents ** Unmetered traffic - 20 Mbps bandwidth limit outbound *** HTTP access (for downloading) FTP + SFTP access (for downloading, uploading and managing) Jouni's double seedbox - €40/month 110 GB disk space * Unlimited active torrents ** Unmetered traffic - 40 Mbps bandwidth limit outbound *** HTTP access (for downloading) FTP + SFTP access (for downloading, uploading and managing) -------------------------------------------------- * Disk space is not hard limited for flexibility, but I still expect you to stay mainly within your recommended space. ** Supposing that you don't abuse the privilege - generally running like 50 torrents at the same time would eat up a huge amount of resources, probably starting to cause problems. *** Basically your rTorrent will be capped for outbound bandwidth, inbound bandwidth will be left uncapped since most of people focus on seeding - there's not nearly as much demand for inbound bandwidth at all. What payment methods do you accept? - PayPal and Moneybookers at this moment. How long does it take to set up my account? - It shouldn't take more than a couple tens of minutes if I'm online and you're not looking for a complicated custom setup to be done. Usually depending on the time of day you might need to wait for a while since I might be sleeping for example. If I'm not happy with my seedbox or I just want to leave, can I get a refund? - Well I don't really like to refund just a couple weeks for example, please request a test account before ordering if you aren't very sure about it yet. Otherwise you're free to leave anytime preferrably by contacting me first though I'll do my best to keep you satisfied and help you in case of any problems for sure. Technical problems are never counted out and often they might be even caused by reason I can do nothing about - in case of a longer downtime or noticable loss a discount or possibly a refund can be worked out! Can I pay you quarterly, semi-annually or even annually? - Sure, discounts and essential refunds in case you want to leave can be worked out for longer payments as well. Do I get any support if I need it? - Of course you do, feel free to contact me anytime! Since you're paying for the service, I've got to make sure you can take advance of it. How about the server hardware, load and bandwidth availability? - All the servers are modern boxes with at least a decent dual core CPU, couple GBs of RAM and two 500 GB HDDs. For your best, I won't be taking too many users on a single server to make sure its load stays reasonable and the bandwidth availability is good. Usually we're talking about 6-8 "Jouni's seedbox" plans at most - you should be able to utilize outbound bandwidth up to your limit at any point. I'm also monitoring the servers day to day keeping in track of the actual usage to be ready to react it anytime on demand. Is there any restrictions? - Not really, I suppose you know what you're doing and I'm here just to make sure your seedbox is up and running as it should and you're happy. I don't know what'll you use your seedbox for nor I'm interested in knowing that. Other users aren't able to access your private information in any way either. Do you happen to have a website? - No I don't, so far. I've considered it, but it doesn't feel very necessary for me - at least for now. Feel free to contact me anytime using private messages (why not regular posts for public questions), email or MSN though! I'm looking forward getting in contact with you!

I received a test account from Jouni personally just now. Great support service. I am hitting decent speed on the torrent now. So far everything is fine and very fast. I will post another review shortly.
Thank you for your review ripified - great to hear your testing being successful! I've set up a couple new test accounts, so anyone interested in a test account - you're welcome
adi10289: No problem at all, I tried adding a couple Debian torrents on your test account and it seems to work as supposed. Could you please send me a private message if you still can't add the torrents? Any error message or details would help me identifying the possible reason causing that
Sorry for such a late reply - somehow I never received an email about the last three posts, so unfortunately it took quite a while to get back here indeed. hmughal75, KingQub3d: Let me set up test accounts for you, a pm will follow soon mike76: Both can be used - it's really up to you since I won't be intensively monitoring your trackers used at all. Of course I could think of people preferring private ones.
hmughal75: Anytime - you're not in a hurry testing, should I say a couple days would be still alright If anything comes up regarding that, feel free to contact me though!
Hello Jouni, I think couple days are less for testing. It'd be minimum of 10 days. Also increase the upload speed. Because seedbox means seeding. Anybody who will buy a seedbox just for seeding not for downloading. Because everybody wants his share ratio good on private trackers. Thanks
