Nice, I'm more than happy with mine xD
Interesting,
2000 units / 12 units = 166 x 2U chassis = 333U space
333U / 48U = 7 full racks
Not that much space taken after all.
All that space wasted in the back though, or does something else go there? Harddrives?
power supply?
As i saw.. HDD not go to the back.
maybe he means empty space besides power suply,is it left empty or they can add more server
Sure
I got one i run InterWorx on it. Really impressed about the quality at this price range.
And here's at online.net:
so this kidechire not even take full of 1 line of rack at the end

Newer photos at DC3 datacenter
I meant the space next to the PSU
Neither of these were the issue. Today, Online.net support switched me over to new servers and on both, the OS installed without a hitch.
Probably a hardware failure then.
The post also suggested power would be under 4000 watts per rack, and Google/Wikipedia suggested France electricity to be about $0.1939/kWh.
7 racks x 4 kW x 720 hours/month x $0.1939 = $3909 = ~ €3000.
Revenue on 2000 units assumption would be €4000.
As the hardware are old and probably had paid for their original cost, there's likely some small operating profit compared to letting them idle and still taking up DC space. And don't forget the massive marketing value!
From the picture posted, most like 11 racks. The CEO has posted here that the electricity cost ~ €2 and the over all cost is ~ €4 per server.
don't forget transaction fees.
I must have missed that post then.
Only because I probably read all 20 pages of comments, as they happened. I believe I am going through a 'server phase' of sorts.

That is what I am thinking. The new servers I am now on, have low hours on the drives!.
9,99€ server
smartctl -a /dev/sda | grep Power_On 9 Power_On_Hours 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 521,99€ server
smartctl -a /dev/sda | grep Power_On 9 Power_On_Hours 0x0012 094 094 000 Old_age Always - 2630wow, your 1,99€ server only have 2630 hours? our's commonly have 20k ~ 30k+
Yes. I was kind of surprised by that number.
On the flip side, my other 2 - 1,99€ servers have 30k+ hours each:
36472 hours
and
36542 hours respectively.
Hey @Joodle how is that 2008R2 image going my friend?
I haven't got it to work yet, still trying out a lot of things
32275, 32271 (these two are right next to each other), 34009, and 32871 for me.
These two right next to each other have load cycle counts of 1845172 and 1850545, respectively. lol. nfc what the hell person was doing here, the other two are under 1000
1000th comment. I need to get a server.
1001th epic comment: too late
Lol, was anyone else wondering who was supposed to be photoshopped into that pic before you realised it was a real photo? I thought it was the old photo with some guy from a film over it.
I love your comment :-) Thats mean that our datacenters are to beautiful to be real
Thank you Thomas
(and no, thats real photos, you can get a lot of thems on google and from our customers)
@abermingham
I am using your server under this promotion. I absolutely loved your panel and your real support for such a cheap service.
I guess, your promotion worked. If I ever needed anything more powerful to run my simulations, you'll be my obvious first choice.
Yeah.
The "this is unmanaged but we will offer support if something is wrong" was very generous from then, since a public forum isn't real support at all.
I don't think Oles was so happy about it
+1 - I don't count on using support for the server unless there is a hardware issue. Just knowing it is there though is a massive bonus.
