Netcup is a European hosting provider known for competitively priced root servers and virtual private servers.

  • Fast local NVMe SSD storage with expandable block storage options
  • 2.5 Gbit/s network port connection
  • Unmetered traffic with fair-use throttling thresholds

Why it was saved

  • @abhagsain, 23 October 2026: A candidate host when you need a 64 GB / 1 TB NVMe server cheaply — listed at about half Hetzner's price with unmetered traffic, and no new-account waiting period.
