Holy f--k, holy f--king f--k, a 2.99 EUR dedi, a 20 EUR dedi with 2x 2TB 1TB HDD and 16 GB RAM (throws money at OVH, hysterically laughing)...
However -- don't forget there'll be a 1.5 GBP (1.5 EUR? or more?...) price increase starting September: http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/11442/ovh-eu-ddos-mitigation
if they haven't backtracked on those plans, that is.
Too bad you can't choose 1 month, minimum is 3 months
Purchased one anyway xD
There was actually a typo on the Ireland page:
http://www.ovh.ie/dedicated_servers/kimsufi.xml used to say "2x2TB"
but at http://www.kimsufi.com/fr/index.xml "2x1To"
and the forum post says yep, that's 1TB disks, not 2TB.
Edit: ...and they just fixed the Ireland page too.
It's still very nice offer...
Availability has just changed from "24 hours" to "29/07/2013" on all servers.
What a deal!
Ordered
just 1 ipv4
Good, no summer hosts on these plans this time
I called OVH, its true no fake...
They got a new DC in Europe.
500GB Hard Disk - good for backup server
Was already halfway through the ordering process until i realized that i don't need another cheap server for 4€/month. Anyway it's an incredible offer although i wouldn't know what to use it for.
Ordered one of the 2.99 and one of the 19.99 servers.
And the 29/07 date is correct, it's not because of out of stock or anything, Octave said from the start in the forum post that deliveries start only early next week.
I was just looking at it thinking wow and them saw this thread. You can get additional IP's too (upto 3 I think)
2 GB RAM, 500GB HDD for $4.5/mo or if outside EU $3.81/month! The death of LEB?
what? they need my photo ID and proof of address?
Yeah that pretty much summarizes my thoughts. Is there a profit margin on power and upstream in France?
Has anyone done the math yet?
That's a killer offer. Wonder if it will be a regular one, or just some temporary promotion.
Also, where is the new data center mentioned?
@rds100 he says this is possible because of the new super-efficient Gravelines DC, in the forum post: http://forum.ovh.net/showpost.php?p=555962&postcount=1
And yeah, on the order check-out form you see that it's "France Nord (Gravelines)" location.
@rds100 It's in Gravelines, Dunkirk. I've been watching the development of the DC for a while now. See
And they have removed the 5TB bandwidth limit now right?
@zhuanyi Yup, it went earlier in the week
That's a nice torrent server then.
Gravelines:

could have a low ping to London, unless everything is routed via RBX first.
Crazy. Bought 3 months of the 2G one.
Wtffff, here is the DC ?
@Xaki: Dunkirk. Excellent news for us in the UK!
@rm_ Can someone run the bench testing script?
All we need now is google giving away a free VPS with every gmail account and we're done :-)
lol, this is the end for leb vps.
For backup, it is excellent
