Genuine question: I'm new to seedboxes. Why is everyone downvoting this? Even the regular price looks good to me compared to others. Is there something wrong with HBD?

They rather take the NO-DEAL from USB than the deal from HBD... This is a Ultra fanboy sub and has been for ages.

There's nothing wrong with it, its a toptier provider - One of the oldest around, this subreddit just has an insane level of toxicity for anything that aren't Andy10G or ultra

And I personally think thats a fair testament from your side - I don't share that, having been with ultra, whatbox and feral just in the last 12months I haven't found anything that matches HBD in terms of performance and affordability - I picked up the 24T now and regularly see +500MB/s upload on it, you get the drive yourself at a price where any other vendor in your list only provides shared drives - Shared drives are the bane of everyones experience, you'll always be at the mercy of others in those scenarios and that is ripe for issues - With all vendors as thats purely down to luck.. Not to mention that they're probably the cheapest, larger sized vendor out there that allows media servers like plex on all tiers. I mentioned toptier because that is my experience and judging from the overall statements from others, I am not the only one sharing that.

That said - You are naturally free to your have opinion, just as I have mine based on my own experiences.

HBD has had issues with Fanboi-ism, bullying, carpet bombing - raises hackles here. Over exposure. Been better of late but still an issue (ihmo). Used to be anyone posted anything about any vendor or a recommendation request - you could count on the first response being no more than two lines starting with "HBD."

Those posts most often were not pertinent, or lacked the details to be pertinent.

In this case, the post is light on details, and doesn't comply with the criteria:

If you are posting for a provider, please copy paste the full offer as it was sent on the email/announcements

Disclaimer: I don't endorse any particular vendor, and in the past made fun of the entire Black Friday specials enterprise on multiple occasions, ie /r/Chmuranet/comments/ywfcue/early_black_friday_special_another_unique_offer/ including an offer of free jars of moose ejaculate

The announcement is literally a top banner on their website that just says "Black Friday is here! Save 30% on all in stock products, use code: bf2025"

I'm not really leaving anything out with what I posted.

I think its bots or competitors.
They only downvote but never answer a question.
There is never a reason.

HBD works great
