| Free tier | no free tier; the 16 GB Windows plan is USD 32.19 a month for 6 vCPU, 16 GB of RAM, 100 GB of NVMe or 400 GB of SSD and 32 TB of transfer, billed every 12 months so the first payment is USD 386.28, and the card states 'Includes Windows licensing' unit none; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | the disk persists while the plan is paid; the page states no deletion clock |
| Egress | 32 TB of transfer a month on a 10 Gbps port, stated on the plan card; no overage price is printed free_allowance: 32 TB per month |
| Identity | card an account and a payment method at order; the store serves its price block as script, so the order screen was not read |
| Limits | the 32 TB allowance and the 10 Gbps port are printed on the marketing card. The billing term is the sharper constraint: the card prices a 12-month bill, so the entry cost is USD 386.28 and there is no printed monthly cycle. |
| Binding | volume-quota 32 TB is the published byte ceiling and the 10 Gbps port is the second limit; both sit above what one 16 GB box will move, so the term rather than the quota is what a buyer actually meets. |
| Interface | rest, cli RDP on the issued address, with the operating system supplied by the vendor under the licensing sentence on the card; the marketing card also names fully managed service and Plesk |
| Tooling | any RDP client; the vendor's store and client area, which serves no prices in its HTML |
| Composes with | the row that decides how a Windows table is ranked: the vendor prints a licence-inclusive price on its marketing page and a price 2.3 times lower on its own store page for the same shape, so a reader who acts on either without the other is acting on half a conflict. |
| Reliability | no reliability event observed the vendor's marketing page and its store page print different annual totals for the same hardware shape and neither page explains the gap. |
| Notes | 386.28 divided by 167.88 is 2.30, and the marketing card is the page that states the specification and the licence while the store card states neither. The three readings considered were: the store price is the same machine without the licence (plausible, an 18.20 a month gap, but no page says it); the two pages sell different product lines (plausible); and one page is stale (refuted, because both were read on the same day and neither figure is dated). None is refuted on evidence, so the record carries the conflict instead of choosing a number. If the 167.88 row is Windows-capable it is USD 13.99 a month for the same shape. |
| Evidence rung | documented the shape, the USD 32.19 monthly figure, the 12-month billing term, the 32 TB allowance, the 10 Gbps port and the 'Includes Windows licensing' sentence are read from the vendor's own card on 2026-10-26, and the 386.28 annual total is exactly 32.19 times 12. The record is not stronger than documented because the same vendor's store page prints USD 167.88 a year for the same 6 vCPU, 16 GB, 100 GB shape with no occurrence of the word Windows, and that gap is unresolved. One order screen settles it. |

|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-26 | www.serverpacket.com/windows-vps-hosting/ | quoted from the plan card: '16 GB RAM', 'PRICE ONLY $32.19 /mo', 'Billed every 12 months', 'Includes Windows licensing', with 6 vCPU, 100 GB NVMe or 400 GB SSD and 32 TB on a 10 Gbps port |
| 2026-10-26 | app.serverpacket.com/store/cloud-vps | quoted: 'CLOUD VPS M', 'Starting from $167.88 USD Annually', for the same 6 vCPU, 16 GB, 100 GB NVMe or 400 GB SSD, 32 TB shape; the capture contains zero occurrences of the string 'Windows' |
| 2026-10-26 | app.serverpacket.com/store/cloud-vps | the store lists the same four hardware shapes with no prices in the served HTML, and the product path /store/cloud-vps/16-gb-ram redirects to the Dedicated Servers page, so the annual total could not be reproduced from an order screen |
