    Yes, however the template or plain Debian 11 to Proxmox 7 breaks the machine.
    If you don't notice the Proxmox 7 install fucks your network config entirely and when you reboot = fucked.

    Indeed debian 11 to proxmox broke for me as well, not able to reach the network after reboot. Upgrading from KS template 6.0 to 7 by adding hwaddress is just working fine.

    Never had success with that template, ever, what Hardware specs?

    I don't think anything special. Just Intel I350 Gigabit NIC.

    The question yet remains, what do we do with these machines?
    Especially the unplanned, 8TB upgrade.

    Top-class seedbox with media server.

    1. Fill it up with media
    2. Turn off transcoding
    3. Sell slots at $4/month over at r/plexshares
    4. Profit

    KS-LE (being replenished) is the same (talking of configuration) KS-5 (available for different price).

    I wonder, for how long KS-LE will remain on the list...

    I believe BF/CM offers should NOT be available for bots (via API), since that means ordinary people have not a single chance.

    Personally, I "upgraded" by older Kimsufi BF dedicated with SoYouStart one (today; note: I really use the servers I order), so I am just wondering whether anyone on LET manages to buy KS-LE.

    I'd say, take KS-5 (same configuration) in case you really need a dedicated...

    For a 2x higher price. I would not consider this config to be worth 30 EUR.

    There are much better alternatives once one starts looking among the "non-special" ones, i.e. KS-16 (with 3 HDDs) and KS-17 (two SSDs!) for only 5 EUR more. And the specs page incorrectly lists those as 4c/4t, whereas that CPU actually has 4c/8t.

    In the 30 EUR territory, there's indeed SYS with similar specs and much higher bandwidth.

    Could also venture towards a hetzner can get nice specs for around 30 euro

    Probably. Personally, I went with SYS; alternatives are either strangely priced, or sold out, as well.

    For the people that want to use additional IPs on their fresh and new kimsufi node, you can get any other VPS with multiple IPs, setup a GRE tunnel and push traffic over it to a VM, the same as @jordynegen11 method in this topic:

    https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/156850/howto-tunnel-ddos-protected-ovh-ip-to-vms-in-other-datacenter/p1

    Is there any benefit to using GRE over wireguard for this? Does the DDOS protection inspect the GRE packet headers on forwarded packets, or does this just rely on filtering done before they reach your server with the public IPs?

    On the internal OVH network it doesn't matter. GRE will have a little more throughput.

    I got both of my KS-LE refunded (1 in France, 1 in Canada), hope it helped those who were waiting for deliveries. 100mbit outgoing is just abysmal.

    I picked up 4 more of these from a reseller called Andy10gbit (Discord: https://discord.gg/uTMZ2SWnCF), who resells OVH servers with full 1Gbit up/down. Extra IPv4 are €2 setup, no rental too.

    Ahaha speak for yourself. I've been renting servers from Andy10gbit since 2019, since the 2x bandwidth backstab from OVH. 27 OVH (Andy10gbit) servers and counting. The guy probably has more servers/clients than most approved resellers here.

    Picked up the Kimsufi-LE due to FOMO. Last time I used a 100Mbit server was in 2015, I guess I just needed to be reminded that I run 600Mbit internet even at home for a reason.

    I can vouch for Andy too, been renting servers from him for 3+ years on and off. His Black Friday sale was great vfm as well https://i.imgur.com/QzOx5ef.png. 2x480GB SSD 10G 300TB Traffic at Leaseweb NL for 90eu is crazy value. I feel you on the Kimsufi 100meg tho. I myself primarily use 10G nowadays.

    I did but then I removed it because it was silly.
    You just install Windows on one disk through Qemu on the rescue system (or dd an image, whatever works for you), I found and installed the Intel network drivers just in case because I wasn't sure if it had them built in, then enable RDP and reboot into the normal system.
    This is all the same as any other headless dedi.

    RAID 0 isn't possible on the root due to Windows limitations, to get RAID 1 you need to right click the partition in Disk Management and select "Add mirror"

    I just installed it... but I think I over wrote it on the already configured raid 1 w linux that I had from b4.. does it mean that I have raid 1 already? Disk mgmt shows 4 partitions

    Disk Management should show 2 disks, one of them has the partition with C: and the other most likely has leftovers from Linux. Once you identify which is which you should remove the Linux partitions and then add a mirror to the C: partition, selecting the empty space on the other disk.

    Did he just paid 10€ more for a CPU with half the performance and half the memory?
    Just to get 1G? which on SYS is not dedicated neither on KS.

    If you hit 1G consistent you get throttled down to 250Mbit.
    Not to mention that W3520 is worse than i5-2300.
