Vultr now doing Bare Metal.

That seems awful expensive though... $300 per month?

I'm getting roughly half the specs for $25 a month...

You don't have access to hardware though. Which is where the additional expense comes in.

I wouldn't want a bare-metal server without some kind of redundant disk. That's why, with my VPS, that I went VPS instead of bare-metal (well one of the reasons). The twice as beefy bare-metal only had a single disk drive in it. No thanks.
The VPS uses RAID10 SSDs.

@tim_g I understand but still no where close to $300.

Also, if you wanted to, you could buy 2

@aaronstuder gotcha...

I was trying to stay at the $20 mark. I did have the option of adding more physical drives and other resources too. But that increased the price.

While that company is a good value, and where I currently run my home lab from. The first of the two servers I had with them had all kinds of drive issues, even after the HDDs were replaced. Many support cases later, I ended up just moving it all to a different server. Would never trust them to run actual workloads, sadly.
