  • In the past six months, when D-1540 was still on Soyoustart, I haven’t seen a 16TB reward for a long time.

    More or less OG KS-LE specs, mine had 2x 4TB for 15€.
    Had gig up/down too

  • Hi, i am just curious, why do you say 16tb? I see 4x2 tb in soft raid. Another question: does it mean that they have 4tb? In softraid you use only 4tb or you will have 8tb usable storage? Sorry for my noobs questions :smile:

  • Wait, so ks-a was only a legend?

    16TB is a reference to the phenomenon with OVH servers where they will sometimes ship servers with higher spec or bandwidth than advertised. In one case there was a batch of 8TB servers that shipped with 16TB instead, since these servers total 8TB the joke is that it might happen again. Those who got the 16TB were said to be part of the "16TB club".

    Regarding softraid, it depends what you do with it in the operating system install (softraid = software raid). You can implement raid with redundancy and have 4TB or even 6TB i believe, or you can yolo and go with 8TB with increased risk of data loss.

    When these servers were first introduced in the SoYouStart range, some had 4x4Tb drives instead of the advertised 4x2Tb. It was called the 16Tb club on LET back then if you had one of those.

  • Ohhh very clear! Thanks to both of you for replies. So i could get 8tb (with risk of data loss), is that right?

    The KS-2, if you put the 4 HDD in a RAID 0, will give you 8 Tb yes. Unless the 16 Tb club still exists in 2024 and OVH randomly hands you a member card. As far as I remember, I think all 16 Tb servers were in France, but I'm not sure.

  • Bhs had 16tb back when the original giveaway was posted. Not sure about ks2.

  • Ovh has so many good looking deals recently

  • KS-2 sold out very quickly. In fact KS-6 too.

    I think he means the old SYS BHS not the new KS-2
