Need help finding OVH or Online.net server
Hello LowEndHelpDesk,
Basically I need an OVH or Online.net server that has these HW configuration
- 2x CPU, > 3.0 Ghz, 32 - 40 threads
- Hardware RAID 10, at least 5x2TB, or 5x500 SSD
I tried but can't find the necessary information on their product information page, especially the HW RAID information.
Can you give me the links to the equivalent servers?
Thanks.

I don't think you can deploy Raid 10 on 5 disks.
Other than that, if the five disks are not the hard requirement, then Online.net deals might be a good options, featuring 2E5-2640v3 32 threads, 192GB RAM, 36TB HDD, at 180 Euro.
Check out their summer deals, refresh several times a day and first come first serve.

Do you want France as your location?
of course you can, using one disk as spare ;-)
Lazy fuck.
Thanks for your suggestion but I need RAID 10.
Not necessary, but I prefer OVH or Online.net
I tried, even asked their support to know if any server has RAID 10, but their reply just doesn't make any sense.
Right, I don't know what the problem is. You need to know if particular server has a raid controller and you can configure the array yourself ? I don't know what seems to be the issue ?
The problem is I can't buy then try to figure out if the server has RAID card support RAID 10 or not. I need to know it before buying.
Then ask them what card model is there, if it's not in spec, and check if the card's specs support it.
They offer unmanaged servers, i don't think it's expected of them to do Custom raid Config, hence you're hitting a wall with their support.
I can set it up myself. I just want to know exactly what you said, the card model, or just simply send me the link to order the server that support HW RAID 10.
you are aware that they have a lisitng of their server specs including information about hw raid cards if available?
example: https://documentation.online.net/en/dedicated-server/offers/limited/server-dedibox-lt-deals-1701-3
(at least all special offers should be listed there even older ones)
I tried for the servers that I think will fit my need.
https://documentation.online.net/en/dedicated-server/offers/2016/server-dedibox-wopr-2016
Couldn't find anything about Dedibox® MINI WOPR 2016 though.
You can find some server with RAID hardware in this link https://documentation.online.net/doku.php/start?do=search&ns=en&id=Raid+hardware+
go here: https://www.online.net/en/dedicated-server/dedibox-miniwopr
scroll down, open configuration, read: RAID Hardware H730P RAID 0/1/5 HARD
2 GB Cache
same for the normal wopper https://www.online.net/en/dedicated-server/dedibox-wopr
;-) ;-) ;-)
PS: if you search for the specs of the DELL H730P http://i.dell.com/sites/doccontent/shared-content/data-sheets/en/Documents/PowerEdge-RAID-Controller-H730P-Spec-Sheet.pdf
you'll find that this card is perfectly capable of doing HW Raid 10 - what I can't tell is, if that is something you can setup via idrac yourself...
@Falzo if not via IPMI then via LSI OS tools. :-)
Thanks @Falzo, I just got the server.
