Designed and assembled in our R&D laboratory in Paris, the EM-RV1 is the fruit of months of research to launch a range of RISC-V servers in the cloud.

Hand-crafted design (laser-cut chassis, 3D-printed blades, hand-soldered components) has allowed us to bring you these world-exclusive servers.

Didn't OVH try to do something similar with Kimsufi servers, didn't use LTS components, ended up having to give people other servers to start, followed by an "oh sorry, that sucks, there's nothing we can do" statement after awhile when all of them started dying one by one?

Might be nice to post a link for reference.
