    @sandro said: will the offer be for iperweb too?

    IPERWEB.COM
    Creation Date: 06-aug-1997

    even if it was registered a few months later the idea of a "hosting" brand was in the air since the beginning...

    the LET exclusive offer will be one... The other offers will be for both budget and business plan

    I don't know if @prometeus wants to post the deal here himself so I'll leave it for now.

    the only VPS i have giving a better ioping result is SSD based. Definitely a very fast i/o. Raid SAS2 disks and gigabit ethernet:

    Can anyone share the email in a PM? If it is allowed for non current customers.

  • sandrosandro Member

    I'd like to know too

  • netomxnetomx Moderator, Veteran

    Congrats my friend!

  • prometeusprometeus Member, Host Rep

    Wow! You're fast :-)

    All interested pm me or wait a few days for the offer to be posted.

    Thanks

  • bobbybobby Member

    Congrats, and thanks for this nice offer. Had to get me one :)

  • bobbybobby Member

    Existing customers first was a nice touch, btw :)

  • pcanpcan Member

    @prometeus: Do you plan to offer NFS storage space in the (near) future?

  • prometeusprometeus Member, Host Rep

    @pcan said: Do you plan to offer NFS storage space in the (near) future?

    local NFS storage to the VPS?

  • pcanpcan Member

    Your offer is pretty good on performance (the E5-2620 rocks!) but the disk space is a bit small. A storage local to the VPS could be useful for many purposes, should the necessity arise.
