  • Should've seen this coming sigh

    What type of RAID (if any) are you running?

    I'm assuming you're asking about the 1TB storage. This is obviously just a promotional rate for the first several signups. We don't just use RAID, this is cloud storage. Data is mirrored across the network, data is stored on two physical servers to prevent loss in the event of ANY hardware failure on a single node.

  • are the storage plans openvz or KVM or?//

  • vdnetvdnet Member

    All of our plans use the same platform. You can read about VPSGrid here: http://byteonsite.com/community/?dwqa-question=what-type-of-virtualization-does-byteonsite-use

    Are we able to choose the location this is provisioned in? I didn't see that in the order process.

    Which server are you asking about? The protected storage systems are only available in Chicago Metro.

    what's cloud storage??

    Well, the meaning we use is it not being constrained to a single node/device.

    Void_Whisperer said: Are we guranteed 1 cpu for the processor intensive servers?

    The guaranteed levels are listed on our web site: http://www.byteonsite.com. Turbo CPU allocations can be used for up to 36 hours every month. If you exceed this limit, then you'll be capped to your guaranteed levels for the sake of your neighbors but usually 36 hours of heavy usage is plenty for most users.

    sorry for the nooby question. any ip I can use to ping? from asia here.

    Where in Asia? Generally speaking Phoenix would probably be the best:

    az.byteonsite.com http://az.byteonsite.com/100MBtest.zip

    Chicago Metro:
    in.byteonsite.com http://in.byteonsite.com/100MBtest.zip

    New York Metro:
    nj.byteonsite.com http://nj.byteonsite.com/100MBtest.zip

    If you're in West Asia, then New York Metro may be better.

    • For 1TB Storage: Your post told that for yearly ($48) the out traffic is 2TB, but it is shown 1TB in your website. So what is the exact value here?
    • 2nd question: Can we run a webserver on it to be able to download backup when needed? nginx for example? or OwnCloud?

    It is 1TB outbound transfer, thank you for catching that mistake. We encourage the user of rsync and incremental backups to reduce I/O usage and data transfer.

    As for owncloud, others have had the same idea. There is no problem with running a web server but these servers are not meant for heavy processing and often owncloud won't work well. I wrote a quick tip on the community site for the alternative solution: http://byteonsite.com/community/?dwqa-question=can-i-add-more-resources-like-ram-and-cpu-to-a-protected-storage-server

    does the "48AYEAR" is recurring or one time discount only?

    and, the network of "Protected Storage Level 1" is 1G or 100M? thanks.

    All servers are on a gigabit port.

    also think the 1T bandwidth is too little for the 1T disk, 3T is more reasonable, at least 2T

  • @hotsnow said:

    The same to me. Can only consider it if the provider have a considerable disk/bandwidth ratio. 1Tb bandwidth for 1Tb disk is not good enough IMHO.

    @hotsnow said:

    The point is to promote rsync/incremental backups and curb the usage for backups. The 1TB storage servers aren't meant for heavy usage hence the cheap price and low CPU/RAM. They are meant for static file storage. If you want a server that is meant for heavy file hosting, etc, then the bandwidth intensive line is available.

    If you're using it for backups, then you should only need to transfer outbound when a server is restored, leaving 1TB Outbound for 1TB Storage being just right.

    if only use as backup, the 1T seems ok, but if also temporarily used for some big files exchange sometimes, the 1T should be insufficient.

    We list the recommended usage on our web site. You are welcome to use it for other usage and your own opinion, but the servers are the best deal out there for cloud storage.

    If only it was capped to, lets say, 10Mbps or in the worst case 5Mbps after 1TB, it would be interesting. If for whatever reason I have to restore two times a 600GB backup in a month, do I have to wait until the next month to do it? It sounds ridiculous.

  • Is the $36/year not on turbo disk?

  • vdnetvdnet Member
    edited July 2014

    @albertdb,

    I'm not sure why it is ridiculous. You are welcome to upgrade the plan for more bandwidth or pay overages if need be. I already stated we encourage the use of rsync and incremental backups and restores to reduce load on the server and the data transferred. I'd say a full 600GB restore twice in a month is a pretty rare scenario. If you can find a better offer elsewhere, feel free, but many users are satisfied with our offer.

    The $36/year 1GB server is turbo disks. Only the protected storage line is SATA.
