SATA2 bug is only in 2016 XC range based on their own production boards. These are all XC 2015 servers with enterprise class SuperMicro boards with real KVM and native SATA3.
Just 3 days ago i cancelled 3 of my servers just keeping one with online.net and now they pull this special so..
I just replaced my old server with a 'LT DEALS 1701.1' which actually has the same specs as my current one but is 10€ (pre-tax) cheaper each month, but as this is a special it has no guarantee bandwidth.
For those wondering, you can't pay by paypal until you been a customer for 6 months or if its 1 year cant remember exactly.. but by then you can change your billing option from CC# over to paypal.
Also they do prorated billing so that's why your payment/invoice is so low because you're just paying for it until the first of february, on 1st feb they'll bill you again for the full month of feb (and thats how prorated works...)
We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and SEPA.
Transfer is unlimited. There is no transfer limit but there is no guaranteed bandwidth either.
Hmm my E3-1230v3 HDD seems to be 92MB/s on avg
Real IPKVM?! Nice!! Can't wait to test it!
INTEL SSDSC2BB16 is MLC while SAMSUNG PM871 is faster but TLC, right? Should both be considered as stable / secure in regard to risk of disk failure? (As there is no RAID possible with those little beasts)
Like which one would be better in real life server scenario?
These drives are on a escargot diet...
so, in this offer the only way to get extra IP's is to buy /27 IP block?
No, you can buy single IP's also, on the ordering page they are under the /27 blocks.
Intel will last longer - to about 700 TB writes. Samsung will die after about 300 TB.
Interesting, thanks! Still quite some write in both cases. Not sure if you can really feel the speed difference between both in real use cases. A big difference regarding IOPS between those two drives?
I ordered 2 x 1701.2. The first one have Intel SSDSC2BB16 with 160 GB and the other is Samsung MZ7LN128 with 120 GB.
Intel SSDSC2BB16:
I/O (1st run) : 159 MB/s I/O (2nd run) : 159 MB/s I/O (3rd run) : 160 MB/s Average I/O : 159.333 MB/sPower on hours: 7531
Timing buffered disk reads: 708 MB in 3.01 seconds = 235.54 MB/sec
Samsung MZ7LN128:
I/O (1st run) : 132 MB/s I/O (2nd run) : 132 MB/s I/O (3rd run) : 133 MB/s Average I/O : 132.333 MB/sPower on hours: 11155
Timing buffered disk reads: 1546 MB in 3.00 seconds = 515.21 MB/sec
Which would you keep? Intel or Samsung?
Intel, of course!
I bought the HDD version and received the SSD version
That E5 with 64GB and 2x3TB looks so tempting, but then I noticed that there are no failover IPs available for it lol. And even if there were, it would cost me 2.50 USD/m extra per IP.. The anti-ddos is also crap compared to OVH where you can set your own rules.
In short, OVH poland offer is far better than this for me even with inferior specs.. at least the failovers work without extra monthly fee.
Yes!
Enjoy your 1Gbps port with 44Mbits/s speeds..
Means?

That saga already takes 5 pages in few hours and keeps counting
nice
"LT DEALS 1701.1" is gone
Bloody hell - I canceled my previous servers with them and re-ordered after terminating.
Damn, only was able to get 5 of them.
Holy crap I just managed to get 3 myself
Tried to cancel one of my two orders
Cancel (Terminate) and Refund are two completely different things.
couldnt get any "LT DEALS 1701.1"
Got two xc 1tb, and then I considered the lt deal but it was gone way too sudden.
I don't feel so bad about sleeping in this morning. I would like some cheap #10 8G machines more than my buttload of pointless OVZs, but meh..
One appealing offer? Yes.
Already sold out? Yes.
Typical online.net sale.
