    sorry, I use that only as VPN, so can't tell much about permanent high load situations... but it's KVM so I think they don't care if you use it 24/7, haven't seen any limits mentioned and geekbench numbers as postet above doesn't look much like there are any.
    only AES flag is missing because they are not passing through the host cpu model...

    From what I have been told from their chat, for the small vps (VPS S) I don't get access to that. I just asked again and they said they don't offer it. There is a quite real chance we are not communicating properly though.

    I have a VPS S in washington DC and can mount one of their given ISOs (including GRML) and of course launch a console window for direct access.

    So they added my 4th drive (said there was a 4th drive in there but DOA so they replaced it)...but the drive doesn't show up in either the OS or on the Leaseweb Panel after their hardware scan. I'm waiting to see what their techs figure out. Loving the dedi though!

    Since they are 20-45% more expensive for dedicated for essentially the same level of support or worse, this is just more of a normalization in pricing. It's debatable if their network is any better. There was a time but not so sure now.

    I notice lots of providers with fairly aggressive pricing right now.

    Take your pick. Everyone seems to be reducing their pricing. Shop around. All I know is that the prices I have been quoted recently are often quite a bit less than what is on their website.

    Indeed, SyS (OVH) have great deals starting out from 29,99EUR/month with a better CPU + RAM and a bigger uplink.

    I have tried their Small, Medium, and Large VPSes in US and AMS and they all come with a Console along with the ability to mount GRML rescue ISO. In the Leaseweb Panel you'll have a "Start Console" option and an "Attach" button too which will have a Rescue ISO that you can an attach and boot into. You can also leave the Console open and reboot and use iPXE.

    Leaseweb has a guide for the VPS Console: https://kb.leaseweb.com/display/KB/Starting+Console

    Anyone having any luck getting leaseweb to reduce the price for existing customers? They are the one provider who seems unwilling to do this for us which is yet another reason we want to move away from them. As time goes on and prices go down our pricing with them is getting more and out of touch with reality.

    mtsbatalha said: Wait guys, maybe 40% for vps servers?

    That promo was 1 year and 9 months ago. I've bought a VPS then and prepaid for 2 years. Because paying advance by 2 years reduces the price by 20% only 48% of the price was left (0.8*0.6).

    To those wanting to go for Leaseweb, be aware of their 3-month cancellation period for orders >= 3 months! (that's why I know it was 1 year and 9 months ago, but I've decided to stick with them another two years)

    EDIT: seems like they don't give 20% off for two years any longer :( What a shame!

  • NihimNihim Member

    Anyone knows if the current discount is recurring ? I have opened a ticket regarding it but would appreciate it if someone has asked it already.

    As long as you pay discount will be provided to you.

    You can use predefined ISOs on any of their VPSes.
    Also you even can do Nested KVM virtualisation on their instances.

    just seen that there are no ISOs in their SFO location available...

    @amarc for their partition layout it is at least only LVM so you can easily get rid of that temp and swap partitions - only to resize root you might need to boot something like grml

    I usually just use iPXE and chainload a ubuntu or debian iso and then do the OS install myself but yeah with their template install they setup a /tmp partition and mount it with
    rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,data=ordered

    I'm still playing around with my new dedi before I start setting it up and transferring everything from my old Leaseweb dedi. They got my 4th drive problem fixed quickly so now I have all 4 of my drives and they all have around only 10k hours and no errors. IPMI on this one is SO much nicer then my old one, remote console actually works without me going through a bunch of hoops. I'm really happy I got a 1Gbps port instead of a 100Mbps port and the G850 (passmark: 2663) is a bit faster then my old G6950.

    All in all I'm super happy with this deal for $27.99. Sure OVH has better specs for around the same price but I've been very happy with Leaseweb's Virginia location and their support team has always been good to me so it's nice to know I can hit them up.

    and here's a bench (I don't have RAID10 setup yet so this is off 1 drive):

    I have been keeping an eye on one of their servers for a long time. Really tempted to get it with this discount offer.

    The only thing is, that server is based on "Huawei RH2288V3 (12LFF) " so not sure if there by any issues with Virtualization etc. (Have only used Dell/Supermicro systems)

    But their price for Dual E5-2650V4 is soooo tempting :)
