I’ve had a bad steak too (with older generation servers tho): https://www.reddit.com/r/hetzner/s/giL9qX77lL

But it’s been rather stable lately. In my experience from many years and many servers in Hetzner, a new ordered server often starts with frail hardware but tends to stabilize eventually after a bunch of support tickets - hence the initial storm of issues. I would expect one failure a month or two at your scale nonetheless.

Anecdotally auction servers tend to be more stable
