Personal Review of Crunchbits

edited January 17 in Reviews

In November '23, I purchased a server from Crunchbits [ Yearly KVM SSD VPS - 4.5GB Yearly SSD VPS]

3vCPU
Memory: 4608 MB
Storage: 125 GB
Traffic: 5120 GB
$22.69 USD/year

In terms of the use of these months, it has been very stable, and some commonly used projects have been migrated to this server.
Tell a little about his merits
1.The price is cheap, and the memory and hard disk capacity of the server in the same price range is large.
2.The backups that come with the system are very easy to use. In particular, it can be backed up automatically on a regular basis, which saves me a lot of worry
The above is just my personal opinion

By the way, YBAS is attached

I don't know why Geekbench 6 test failed.

    question please: what does YBAS means? I see a lot of people using this word here in the forum

    Google is your friend → https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script

  • Yabs probably failed because you have no SWAP.

    @Carlin0 believe it or not, I googled it but had no result about it, even asked chatgpt which has no idea what it is too! thank you bro

    Install tar and zip/unzip. I can't remember which but yabs fails to extract the geekbench archive or something if your distro doesn't have that installed by default. Could be unrelated but it was a problem I saw before.

    Maybe you searched for "YBAS" instead it is "YABS"

    Not necessary with this amount of RAM
    Probably just missing packages in this case.

    Yep, usually this. See it on some of the distros.

    apt install zip tar curl -y 
    

    Thanks for the review @Malis

    And not to sound ungrateful or be a party pooper, but I would bring attention to:

    2.The backups that come with the system are very easy to use. In particular, it can be backed up automatically on a regular basis, which saves me a lot of worry

    Just make sure to always keep an additional backup outside of these. They are a best-effort value-add we offer, but it is not perfect. We are going to be improving the internal VM backup backend within the next month but I still don't want to see someone lose data because of a miscommunication or misunderstanding.

    You can try Geekbench 5 :)

    curl -sL bench.monster | bash -s -- -gb5

    A common side-effect of purchasing our incredibly well-priced storage VPSes.

    I can't lie, it's kind of refreshing to see a LET provider explicitly pointing out their provided backups aren't perfect. Big ol thumbs up over here from me.
