Bulkvm Reviews 

I came across this host while looking for the best value-for-money VPS with large HDDs for my Proxmox Backup Server. A lot of things pleasantly surprised me:

1. HDD performance is excellent. Across measurements taken at different times, I got 100–180 MB/s on sequential read/write with a 1 MB block size. Took benchmarkes with fio: fio --name=readwrite --size=1G --directory='./' --filename=testfile --bs=1M --rw=readwrite --direct=1 --numjobs=4 --runtime=60 --time_based --group_reporting

2. Storage VPS pricing is extremely low. I pay $10 for 5 TB of HDD plus an SSD for the root.

3. Support responds quickly. For example, when I had a HDD resize issue after changing my plan, they responded within 7 minutes (!) and fixed it (ticket #FKY-889278).

4. Network throughput is good. iperf3 to another node of mine shows close to a true 1 Gbps channel.

Overall, at this point I can confidently recommend this host. I doubt you'll find a better VPS with large HDDs in this price range.

I've used BulkVM for a number of things, including personal and business use. The setup was easy, and you can't beat the cost for what you're getting. Support is responsive and easy to work with. I'd highly recommend Bulk to anyone looking for a cost-effective VPS with "bulk" storage.

I've been using BulkVM for both personal and business backups, and I couldn't be happier with this service. They offer huge storage space at very affordable price points, which is great for anyone looking to implement a reliable 3-2-1 backup strategy. Because it's a true VPS, a bit of Linux know-how is recommended but once everything is set up, backups and restores have been smooth and trouble-free. zero downtime for me.

A few features that stood out for me:
- Super affordable compared to other VPS & cloud/backup providers.
- Support for most major Linux distributions.
- Consistent network & transfers speeds, which have made large data operations hassle-free and predictable.
- Intuitive control panel for easy management and all the stats I need at a glance.
- ZFS RAIDZ2 storage for redundancy - no worries about losing your data to a harddrive failure.
- At the time of this writing, their servers are hosted from a diaster-free zone in Arizona, so you can rest knowing your data is safe from unforeseen accidents.

Plus, the owner is extremely responsive and helpful whenever I've reached out with questions. Overall, I highly recommend BulkVM to anyone needing dependable, scalable storage VPS solutions. BulkVM's been my choice for data backups and perfect for homelabbers, selfhosters, and small businesses.
