My VPS Karneval 2020 SSD caching (hence "SSD-Performance") for 3.33 euro/m ~ 40 euro/yr
That was probably the deal of the year, which I missed
(For clarity, it was 40 € /y, so 3,33 € /m)
> Yes you are right. Fixed. But 4GB RAM and SSD caching (hence "SSD-Performance"). For my mind 5.50 euro better with 8GB and pure SSD.
Ah, you're right, I had forgotten: it was SSD caching and not pure SSD! It was still a very good deal, but I feel less bad now that I missed it :smile:
Yeah, the Easter deal for VPS S was very tempting -- I literally had to hold myself back from it :smile:
Are you sure it wasn't pure SSD? https://www.netcup-sonderangebote.de/vserver/vps-karneval-2020/
Decent VPS anyway. The good thing with Netcup is that they can price match the small providers, while being a quite big provider with the security & peace of mind that comes with that.
Nice iops in your bench. Pure SSD or not, seems to provide pretty good perf!
Fully agreed.
In the original specs (which aren't shown on that page), the disk was given as "SSD-Performance", which is a marketing slogan that netcup have used in the past for "SAS HDD with SSD caching". This said, netcup's SAS HDD with SSD caching is done very well. Nevertheless, you can see a difference in the benchmarks just above between @ofit's benchmark ("SSD-Performance") and @MissFortune's benchmark (pure SSD) in the fio Disk Speed Tests.
Darn, I've just seen an egg for VPS S
@Ponury_Typ how long did you waited for set up?
Interesting, thanks!
Seems like it's well done, indeed. There is a difference, but for most workloads it won't matter: in real world use there's a lot you can do with the i/o of this "SAS HDD with SSD caching" setup . The VPS XS (VPS 200) that did appear at some point this week end seemed quite interesting as well... but it was almost impossible to get.
@Grayman couple hours after verfication
@Grayman said:
I already had an accout there, so setup was instant.
IS it active?
If yes, please send link
How to run this bench at centos?
thanks

Just check out their repo at https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script
still active,
look for easter eggs like this picture in the url like : https://www.netcup.de/ueber-netcup/hardware-infrastruktur.php
and then click the egg picture,
the generated link cannot be shared because there is a key browser session
Thank you!

I want to buy it but only if it is AMD
Some are, some aren't. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason. My VPS Ostern S was on AMD architecture. I'm waiting for a second one to be provisioned.
Let us know what you get
My guess is that they have more (older) Intel machines than (newer) AMD machines, so the chances are higher that one will get Intel
Had account there as well, been 2 days and nothing so far. I'll just keep waiting
just buy the monster thing with 16 or more cores. that's more likely gonna get you an AMD I'd say
My order yesterday on an existing account was provisioned extremely quickly (within 15 minutes). That was on a business account that is set up for automatic wire transfers.
But after paying today via PayPal on a new account, things are taking longer. It took three days for them to re-generate an invoice without VAT for my US-based business account. But at $60/year for the VPS Ostern S, I'm willing to wait a bit. Next, I just have to figure out what I'm gonna do with it...
Well I asked the support to relocate my instance to an AMD host. That's what they said (translated freely):
My host is also quite busy, I get around 30% steal in average.
I got 0.0 steal on my machine.
Yeah, I have some others with them - also no steal. They will move you if you have a "Root Server" but not on the "VPS"
