    You don't get near fresh disks on a Kimsufi server that often, the only time you do is when the disk been replaced due to total disk failure or if a previously customer of it asked OVH to replace it due to smart data e.g. high Reallocated_Sector_Ct .

    The hardware just keep getting recycled to next customer until it fails.

    Yep I'll be holding on to this box for a long time!

    Replaced an old one also from Kimsufi that had 10 years 24/7 hard disk hours (with no issues) when I gave it up

    I had one for several years. The Kimsufi line is still a dependable cheap dedi, my only issue is the incremental price raises on long term customers. I chose to stop using them, my old KS-1 went up by 3 euros, was 2.99 and doubled to 5.99 (200% price increase). I've long since moved on to companies that actually care for their loyal customers and behave more ethically (also better speed, hardware, etc). Honestly, 100mbit is painfully slow and not useful anymore even for backups for me (it's 2019 after all...).

  • Still have several kimsufi servers on the ovh manager, N2800 CPU with only 2GB RAM and 500GB HDD. €10.99 each :'(

  • Just cancel and get ks3 bro

  • For mine, I have replaced it with a ks promo before this one. But there are several others ks server belonging to my friends. I just take care of billing payment, because they don't have paypal/cc for payment.

    They can still take care of their own servers (reboot, rebuild, etc) by using their own ovh account. With the current kimsufi management panel, it seems like it can't.

  • I bit the bullet for an atom and got lucky with a HGST drive with only 1k power on hours. Going to keep this for a while if I can continue renewing at this price.

    Congrats!

    (But they might have run it in reverse for a while to roll the odomoter back ... keep an eye on that sucker. Maybe burn it in for a few quick TB, let it know there's a new boss on that hoss!)

    Told you W3520 won't probably anytime soon.

    Yet I promised I will look for an i5 next time.

    I know - Can always hope though ;) - an i5 (or i7) would be very good :)

  • Are these supposed to be full-duplex? I tried uploading and downloading at the same time and one will be full speed but the other will drop down into the Kb/sec range. I'll have to try rebooting into rescue mode and seeing if it does it then.

    Try your best with something raid please, maybe can be with 10D delivery or something if dont have ready stock, maybe have the parts to assemble :)

  • 2x2TB i3 is a worthy box.

    Think about it.

    No ECC though.

    Surely on a box like that's only going to be used for stuff like Nextcloud, etc? Does that really require ECC?

    I wouldn't want a server without ECC.

    Don't want to derail the thread too much, but why? Does it not depend on the servers job?

    Why not?

    Of course it depends.
    But when talking about servers with more than a few GB storage and disk mirroring, you probably have some data there you care about.

    Imagine your filesystem is holding some new data to be written in memory, bad things happen (bit error in your memory), and afterwards your raid layer mirrors this corrupted data to your two disks.

    Fortunatelly this doesn't happen that often. But it does. It doesn't necessarily mean that the end is nigh with non-ECC servers. But it is definitely further away with ECC. ;)
