    BurstNet finally stopped announcing VD's IP space and VD is now single peered to AS33597 InfoRelay Online Systems. InfoRelay has a better network than Burst (which I know from my experience as a Host Virtual customer because their US network relies heavily on InfoRelay)

    InfoRelay rocks and it isn't a cheap option either :)

    Just saw on WHT some servers are back. VD has problems to release their IP blocks from BurstNET.

    However, I guess VD will suffer a lot of imagedamage coming days.

    I hear some servers are back up.

    Well. We all know that some of VD servers are with BurstNET's datacenter at this point. I doubt they'll make any money since people probably going to get the backups if they're lucky enough and move somewhere else.

    And I think Inforelay should cost them more than Burst

    InfoRelay definitely costs more. Unless they're planning on increasing their prices they're going to have a hard time turning a profit. InfoRelay also isn't going to put up with the spammers and botnets that VolumeDrive is infamous for hosting.

    Based on the traceroute from HostVirtual at InfoRelay 60 Hudson St, VD's main website is in the same DC. Info on 60 Hudson

    traceroute to 204.124.180.67 (204.124.180.67), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets

    As they did with with Burstnet.. dont cover the running cost and then skip town..

    Only time will tell. I just recently looked at there offers, prices are good. Would love to see those somewhere in NL :D but then again, who will challenge there pricing if they sell below cost

    So is VD going to run away from Inforelay again pretty soon?

    are they dead or not?

    Plans are the same price as a lot of LEB hosts, that's quite good for a 'major' company!

    With all the money they save on doing the dine and dash with their colo providers why wouldn't they be.

    What's major about them except their turning tricks?

    Well there's a certain provider in Buffalo who claimed that 200 VPS nodes made him one of the "big boys", so I imagine VD's 1000 servers would make them "major" by comparison. :)

    @Jack Nope only burstnet. One which hasnt been online in over 7 days (still awaiting support reply).

  • SplitIceSplitIce Member, Host Rep

    Fortunately our fallback system worked for most people and those that it didn't work for (e.g those who needed a set ip for firewalls) got transferred elsewhere.

    Burstnet is a joke. And so it also seems is VD.

  • xsetxset Member

    @splitice what kind of fallback system? What kind of services?

    gsrdgrdghd moved in June/July.

    That was lucky, I remember you moaning about them a few months back.

  • jakejake Member

    I thought VolumeDrive were moving into their own facility in PA according to Shawn from BurstNET? Now it's InfoRelay NYC?

    I cannot see how they can sustain the prices they offer in New York City, InfoRelay isn't cheap either.

  • MountVPSMountVPS Member

    they seem to be back online but they will take a lot of hit

  • ShamliShamli Member

    my server now up...

  • SysAdminSysAdmin Member

    What kind of response are people getting from VD?

  • c0yc0y Member

    Lol, burst gave people different hardware setups, only one disk and sometimes blank disks, clearly they must have ripped the disks out of the VD servers so they can offer them themselves.

    Burst is such a shitshow
