Really nice offer!!
Is this the speed test result for your complete network or the burstable gigabit port?
@dhamaniasad
In a 1 Gbps port, you can only get 125MB/s at max.
--oops just noticed it's Mb/s so yeah it's possible..
Yeah, its bits. I get around 520Mb/s on DO, so volumedrive's network seems better.
Vd' data center is in the Burst?
Pure Cogent still? http://bgp.he.net/AS46664
Nope, they have their own datacenter now.
Very Much Tempting Offer, But afraid because of their Poor Reviews !
I'd vouch for volumedrive
Looks like things have changed a lot for VD after "Burst" event, hopefully good only...
Also a total of 2 peers http://bgp.he.net/AS46664#_peers
@dhamaniasad Hi friend, how is the support?
Its been nice, for me at least. Sometimes the reply times might go up to as much as 12 hours, but never more than that. The support has always been helpful and they resolved a all my issues for me as well as gave me 3 extra days due to a smps failure.(the outage did not last that long)
1 Gbps burstable port on a dedicated server.
Glad to see the positive feedback!
CPU Mark for the Dual L5540 is 8371! much nicer than the more common dual L5520 @ 6845.
and it has SEXteen core for anyone bored of the regular sex core..lol
great offer but i am worry about their ordering system. recently i order this server but last 1 hour i not get any email confirmation !! no invoice no order id ! no customer login. ever they say me a dedicated server delivery time 3-4 business day :O I am really worry about this issue why not any billing confirmation system ?
Waiting to get their service
I believe that should say:
That is the way their ordering system works. You are going to get your server info and customer login when they deliver your server.
Yes, setup times are normally 24 - 48 hours. No worries, if you've placed an order, you'll receive your server online email along with your client portal login once the server has been provisioned. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to myself personally [email protected] or feel free to call our sales line.
/30 yes that is correct.. thanks for pointing it out
Offer is now sold out, apparently.
We have one or two left at the moment for custom builds. If anyone is interested, please write [email protected] and we'll see if we can accommodate a special build on one of these servers.
@volumedrive X4 Quad,8GB,1TB,1GBPS $29.95 still available?
Yes, this special is still available here;

@volumedrive ok thx
how long active dedicated after payment done?
What is your current avg support ticket responce time please and do you actually have a real ticket system now?
I need a server for messing about with for none critical stuff but I fear for your ability to deliver even that to be honest.
@AnthonySmith
Cant give a specific time on their ticket response time, I've had wildly varying response times ranging from 16+ hours (During the two dedi specials they were offering earlier this month) down to under 10 minutes on a ticket I just submitted half an hour ago.
You'll notice that I mention 'ticket' response times, yes this means they actually have a ticket system now. Three cheers all around
Yes, we do have a ticket system. Feel free to write me directly [email protected] for a quote / expedited delivery.
Depends on the configuration and if its custom or not, but usually 24 - 48 hours (excluding weekends)
