well they are NL anyway.
XC SSD is gone now.
keep on reloading their site, on the high cancellation rate one can read herein chance are high, that some of those might come back...
JUST DON'T GO AWAY! ;-) ;-)
My LT1701.1 HDD drives are averaging at 145 MB/s? Keepers?
XC DEALS 1701.2 - Waiting delivery
How long does it take to deliver the server?
Did try Intel 160GB vs Samsung 128GB SSD with fio using the following command:
Read: fio --name=randread --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=16 --rw=randread --bs=4k --direct=0 --size=2G --numjobs=8 --runtime=240 --group_reporting
Write: fio --name=randwrite --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=1 --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --direct=0 --size=2G --numjobs=8 --runtime=240 --group_reporting
Results:
Intel SSD

As expected there is a difference but it's not huge:
18k IOPS for Intel / 24k for Samsung
Read 134MB/s Intel / 165MB/s Samsung
Write 75MB/s Intel / 97MB/s Samsung.
Considering that the Intel drive is bigger and might last longer it's quite good IMO.
Age is different though: Intel is 480 day old while Samsung is 250 days old.
Are your account verified? It took only around one minute from I ordered to my server was ready. Little longer for the second one that was a MD DEALS 1701.1
Why do the benchmark say CPU frequency : 1200.000 MHz while CPU model : Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C2750 @ 2.40GHz ?
Is it 1.2ghz or 2.4ghz? I am confused.
2.4 but when idling it goes down to 1.2Ghz
Yes! my account is verified and it's not my first server with them.
Hope there is not a problem of lack of stock!
RAID-0'd mine and getting 280-280mbyte/s, so your values seem accurate.
nah man let them go , i still f5f5f5
For those who got their boxes, what IP range did they give you?
Some might come available at the end of month too, when more cancellations will take effect.
I've tuned up mine and it's using Turbo up to 2.6 GHz:
Socket [0] - [physical cores=8, logical cores=8, max online cores ever=8] TURBO ENABLED on 8 Cores, Hyper Threading OFF Max Frequency without considering Turbo 2498.96 MHz (99.96 x [25]) Max TURBO Multiplier (if Enabled) with 1/2/3/4/5/6 Cores is 0x/0x/0x/0x/0x/0x Real Current Frequency 2621.35 MHz [99.96 x 26.22] (Max of below) Core [core-id] :Actual Freq (Mult.)

Better check your:
smartctl -l devstat /dev/sda
to find out much writes do these SSD's had before:
Then use:
http://www.unitconversion.org/data-storage/blocks-to-gigabytes-conversion.html
to convert 7979655760 to GB = 3804.996376038 which means 3.8 TB writes - almost nothing for enterprise SSD
Did anyone has a problem with adding credit card?

Guys, I think this is not normal. My Load average in htop shows above 1 constantly.
I checked atop and it shows very busy hdd's and what else. Fresh Ubuntu 16.04
What's going on? Are disks bad and keep load high or what?
Guess you just get what you paying for, not less.
Anyone else with MD DEALS 1701.1 that have seen a reboot in their ILO? It have a massive checklist is goes thru before it finally start. A check list worthy NASA's old Space Shuttle launch. It actually takes several minutes to restart my server...
Is your card by any chance prepaid one? Since i got same issue and their reply is:
Hello, You certainly use a Credit Card not allowed by our Financiel Partner. We don't accept e-card or pre-paid card or debit Card. Your real Credit card must to have the 3D Secure compatibility. Regards - Etienne K.

@jenkki, why are you so bitter? Like every message from you is oozing hatred and bitter. I feel in better mood in comparison with you, and that is not a good measure for anyone.
I've got to ask...
For the people who bought 2 or 3 or 4... what is the plan? To ressel?
Already have 2 of the 3815's, tempted to get another E3, but I need hardware RAID for ESXi...
