  • How cloud?

    • good question -

    For now that is all marketing.

    Right now - technically it is VPS but, the resources are scalable. The difference between the two terms in this case is the back end storage and pooling of resources from multiple. We are starting this processing by building out the back end storage first.

  • After 6 months it's all went out of LET pricing rules. This kind of offer allowed?

  • I wasnt sure either to be honest. We arent looking to break or bend any rules. We have talked about a plan for

    1 Core / 512 MB / 5TB Transfer / 20 GB SSD Disk

    for $7 per month (before discount).

    If there we find interest in that we will implement it.

    the plan is good, however $10 after 6 months is not good

  • @iSky, thanks for the feedback

    Lets do this....

    We have just adjusted the pricing on our low end (no pun intended).

    We will do $7 (without discount) per month for:

    1 Core

    1 GB RAM

    5TB Transfer

    30GB of SSD Diskspace

    That will be 3.50 per month after the LOWENDTALK promo code for first 6 months.

    I doubt this is SSD Server
    the I/O is very bad
    however the speedtest is very good

  • Definitely is using an SSD array but, Ill send this test over to our engineers and get a good explanation.

    are you sure you're not 1 man show ?

  • tommy said: are you sure you're not 1 man show ?

    Yes, I am sure. because we register through OpenSRS and dont like spam coming from whois, that makes us one man shop? Want our address so you can stop by Delaware and hang out? :-)

  • @verticalswitch the vps openvz or kvm xen?

  • nice surprise behind your order link ;)

    hope can manage to order from you before the promo end.
    i still have several VPS to manage but almost hit the check out button on your offer.

    for now i'll just keep follow your offer.

  • @iSky ask for a refund?

  • @iSky we have techs at the datacenter now going through setting a similar server with the same build to resolve the issue. If you would like this month free we will grant it and I apologize for the inconvenience. Right now it is belived to be a bios setting and changing that setting will require a reboot which we will schedule with everyone whom has signed up.

  • iSkyiSky Member

    will wait 48 hours for him to resolve it, please be honest if it is SSD or not

  • XeiXei Member

    No speed test files / looking glass ?

  • @verticalswitch Can you offer me an annual plan for 128 MB?
