Thanks! Pretty good review about their servers. I'm thinking about ordering a FR node there, the E3-SSD-4, RAID 5, for KVM VPS purposes.
This is pretty useless as OVH uses different brand disks in their servers, at least include disk model.
Also why only sequential tests? I would like to see random IO tests and ping tests...
