Hunting KS-LE-B (LIM/FRA) - Looking to buy or maybe trade
Hey everyone!
Short storytime:
All my current servers are colocated in Germany, but as many of you probably know, power and IPv4 prices have skyrocketed over the past few years. Unfortunately, it’s now simply too expensive to keep them up and running.
Honestly, it’s a bit frustrating… I put quite a lot of time (and money) into building an HPE DL325 Gen10 Plus with an EPYC CPU just about two years ago, and now I’m left with some great hardware that I can’t really use.
Big thanks again to all the LET providers who reached out with colocation offers – really appreciate it!
Anyway, since a few folks seem to be moving from KS-LE-B to KS-Mystery lately, I figured some of you might be letting go of your LE-B in the coming weeks. If that's the case and you'd be willing to help me out of this desperate situation a bit, I’d be happy to take one (or two) off your hands for a fair PayPal Friends payment.
What I’m looking for:
2x KS-LE-B with ~32gb RAM and NVMe Storage (FRA/LIM) to fully replace my current colo setup
I also have a decent KS-Mystery in LIM (E5-1650v4 with 2x 2TB NVMe). I’d prefer to keep it for non-essential stuff (labs, game servers, etc.), but I might consider trading it for 2x KS-LE-B if the timing and offer are right.
Also, if someone happens to have a KS-Mystery with an EPYC CPU and (? for some reason ?) doesn’t know what to do with it, feel free to reach out! I’d happily take it for a fair fee, which would make it much easier for me to let go of my own KS-Mystery 😄
Cheers!

Dude you can call yourself lucky IF you get ONE KS-LE-B, because noone with the right mind would trade it!
My thought exactly. OP is seriously undervaluing the LE-B. That is a 10euro/month server with very capable hardware and IPMI. Spending 2.5x more for a modest hardware upgrade and 1Gbit outgoing bandwidth upgrade that I believe most general users dont need.
I got a LE-B with 1245v5 32GB 2x450TB NVME and 1g/1g duplex I’m going to be letting this go since I got a nice mystery server, happy to listen to deals/swaps
Not underestimating the KS-LE-B at all. I’m grateful for any offer.
The thing is, to build a small cluster you need at least 3 (equal) servers with low latency between them.
The 300mbit on the LE-B is fine, but that’s pretty much the limit.
Saw a bunch of people saying they’re maybe giving up their LE-B, otherwise I wouldn’t have even posted.
Would’ve been unrealistic if I asked for a KS-A - that one’s more of a meme server anyway lol.
KS-LE-B basically sold out within 1 hour, compared to MYSTERY its fucking rare.
The only thing that would be even more rare, KS-A, which sold out in minutes.
As a reminder, its 12$ for 32gig and E5 and 2x 480GB NMe, cheap as fuck if you don't need 64GB
I will pay you fibuty dollah
BTW what ovh subsidy is it under?
yes, you're right @Neoon !
Someone wants to swap this server for a KS-LE-B NVMe in LIM/FRA?
2x 1.75 TiB NVMe SAMSUNG MZQLB1T9HAJR-00007
128GB RAM
E5-1650 v4
1g up/down
Location LIM/FRA
Interesting offer, however I am not interested in a 128gig server though.
My bottleneck probably would be the CPU.

Looks like nobody’s interested in trading my KS-Mystery for a KS-LE-B with NVMe in LIM.
Specs Reminder:
2x 1.75 TiB (2x 1.92TB) NVMe SAMSUNG MZQLB1T9HAJR-00007
128GB RAM
E5-1650 v4
1g up/down
Location LIM/FRA
Giving it one last bump, if no one’s interested, consider the thread closed.
Ah, Wish I could have it. I have a E5-1650 v4, 128GB with 2*450 GB NVMe in BHS, But I need in EU.
KS-Mystery gone, thanks for the smooth trade @snow2k
