[EvilSkillz]

Nope dont think so, only rent

yes you can, but it is really really expensive

You may buy server motherboard, but it's expensive plus you don't have any ddos protection.
It's still better to rent hosting than buying a server.
You may talk with hosting company about that, maybe they give you cheaper offer if you pay for 1 or more years of hosting and talk with them about that.
Some ISPs do that for clients who are long time with them.

I wouldnt mind selling mine. Asap as i finish a "project" and advertise it I get ddos'd so i got no use for it anymore. No dedi protection, 600 USD

but i don't need to rent for 1 year or more
i need it to be mine server

with traffic/bandwith/etc,,...
so i hope if i can get the full server for mine use forever .. so i pay only 1 time forever

Yes you can buy a server.

And you can also place it in a CO-Location in some nearby datacenter incase you want to upgrade to some DDoS-protection or anything like that(if thats offered in that datacenter).

so u mean if i bought a server
i can put it in Company .. + ..

so little question .. if i put it in my home
i need to get internet in my home ?
or the server can get internet by itself

 

[HalfAway]

Yes you need internet for it.

Co-Location also costs monthly money, but you can always host at home.

And if your going to host at home, you don't need to buy a rack.

You can just buy computer parts and build your own "server pc" and just install any OS you like.
< This is alot cheaper then buying a Rack if you want alot of ram / disk space / good CPU etc.

But if you build a regular PC and use it as a server, you cannot place it in a datacenter, I think mostly of them only accept racks.

If you dont want to spend a fortune you could get something used like this

You will be DDoS'd to death

I don't know how a hardware firewall works, but if you plan to buy a server, you surely need a Cisco ASA too.

You could route traffic through something like Cloudflare pro to avoid DDoS attacks on the website. As for ports 7171/7172 yeah they are vulnerable.
