3v-Hosting Netherlands Amsterdam Reliable and Secure KVM VPS Test and Review
We recently checked out the Amsterdam VPS from 3v-Hosting, a server that promises reliability and tight security. It’s equipped with a standard KVM processor and comes with 3 CPU cores, 3 GB of RAM, 30 GB of fast SSD space, and a 100 Mbps network connection. You won’t have to worry about data limits with its unlimited traffic setup, and it includes an IPv4 address.
In testing, we put it through its paces with a bunch of tools: Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark for core performance metrics; Global Node Test to see how the network holds up worldwide; Global Ping Test to check how quick the response time is.
We used the Media Unlock Test to ensure you can access content from different regions, the CloudFlare Test to gauge how well it connects, and we also measured web speed with well-known tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.

Conclusion
Our rigorous testing showed impressive I/O speeds averaging 417.7 MB/s, suggesting swift data handling capabilities. Network performance was exemplified by high upload speeds, notably peaking at 586.16 Mbps in Paris, and similarly high download speeds, such as 931.97 Mbps via Speedtest.net. Even with varied latency across global locations, the response times were decent, ranging from a swift 0.93 ms locally in Amsterdam to the higher 258.76 ms observed in Tokyo.
Further testing with Yabs and UnixBench revealed strong disk and CPU performance. Disk speeds were consistently high for different block sizes, while CPU benchmarks showed the server’s capability to handle parallel tasks with increased throughput when running multiple instances. The diversity and robustness in performance were confirmed by scores that consistently beat baseline figures across the board.
Results were mixed in the Media Unlock Test on the multimedia front, with successful unlocks for platforms like Dazn and YouTube Premium in the Netherlands region. However, several other services, like Disney+ and HotStar, were inaccessible. This indicates that while some international content streaming is available, there are limitations depending on the service.
In conclusion, the 3v-Hosting Amsterdam VPS has strong processing power and network speed performance. Its storage is fast, and the server can easily handle high workloads. The variability in media accessibility should be a consideration for those requiring specific regional services. Overall, this server is robust for businesses and individuals looking for a dependable hosting solution with solid European performance.
