Flash sale is closed, sold out guys !
Not mine , Gbit adapter connected to 100mbit port ,
Thanks for the updates. (By the way, I guess that you work for OVH. I think that I had missed this earlier.)
Cheers on that - thank you @ninzo59 - this time around I think stock lasted much longer also because there wasn't the usual flash banner on the website and for those who don't keep tabs on the api, it was only through this announcement that it was known.
Yes he is an OVH guy, you're right.
In fact there was the usual flash banner on website, you might haven't seen it because of your cache, but you sure aren't the only one in this case
. Plus, there was a bigger stock this time.
+1
I just see one IpV6 in the control panel. Is that correct or can we get additional ones?
If yes, can I use it for multiple VMs? Please help. Thanks
You get access to a /64 (unofficially), but due to their horribly broken setup - OVH never got IPv6 right, and I doubt they ever will - you only get to manage a /128 in their panel etc.
Interested in knowing this as well, earlier it used to remove it when you logged in but not this time.
Actually, I do max out the BHS port every time and I'm in the west coast.
I never said Online doesn't oversell networks. They have to at that price range. I never get more than 25-35% port speed on any of my European servers (Online/ Kimsufi/ Hetzner/ Netcup). But I get the fastest speeds with Online even with the throttling. YMMV ;-)
Lucky you. I max out BHS everytime. Never with RBX or GRA. But then crossatlantic speeds are much more than just a factor of port speeds.
I'm honestly more excited for a Kimsufi SSD (which I found out on this thread was coming soon), rather than this promotion, to be honest.
Kimsufi SSD? when where how?
I lied, it was on the other troll flash sale thread.
(But that part wasn't a troll)

Main reason I can't use Kimsufi is because they don't offer SSD, and I no longer want to bother with HDD speeds.
oh ok thanks for the details
KS2A 250Mbps？
I actually see that myself but I wouldn't count on that being accurate.
Bug (This server cannot be ordered on Kimsufi.)
@EHRA But I have already ordered this model.
https://www.kimsufi.com/en/order/kimsufi.cgi?hard=1801sk024
Nearly positive anyone that orders that server will still get the same port speed as all the other servers. It's happened before with sys.
And you will receive a server with 100mbps connection
@EHRA @YokedEgg
This step of your order was subject to an error. Our departments have been notified and will intervene as soon as possible.
Once the problem is resolved, your bill will be generated, and your services will be activated. If necessary, you will be contacted directly by the relevant department.
Let us know what you get
It's definitely an accident. An OVH worker confirmed they have no plans on changing anything other than adding SSD's to the line. No changes in terms of networking.
You'll receive the same server but it'll be the regular port speed.
Hmm, I got mine (at €8) before the hike, and my price hasn't changed despite the announcement that made me think it would. That €10 is now the regular price with actual stock is very good too: it used to be more, I think. Or at least it was out of stock all the time. I like this server despite its cpu not being the fastest. The network is good and I always prefer dedis to VPS because of the separate hardware. Of course the promo KS-4C was attractive too, but I decided not to upgrade after a realization that I don't really have a use for more CPU at the moment.
Are you sure on the price change? I got mine at €7 before the hike and had renewed for a few months. The price at the next renewal (soon) is €8.
I agree. It's been a very good and consistently performing server as long as you respect its limitations (Network BW + CPU). I've been using it as a backup/dumpyard for stuff and I've never had difficulty getting the promised 100mbps (~11MB/s over rsync) either way.
Unfortunately as things get larger, the speed does get in the way of "quick" stuff and even with an inconsistent 1G link at Online, it's easy to get more than 25-30MB/s over rsync consistently, beating the pants of any KS network wise.
Still, I'm at that point where despite loving the KS-2E I've to think really hard about reinvesting that $$$ elsewhere for better RAID+Network+CPU (like the Hetzner Finland machines).
Sigh. The problem of not having enough $$$ to have a few more idling dedis.
How long will it be delivered?
I understand you sold all i5-2300/2400/3570s which were free.
@Vova1234
Ordered mine about 19 hrs before you, Im still waiting.
Delivered at now.
Sorry about the delay, in fact you ordered just before closing all order on this reference. Basically, we sold a little more than we had.
