Hetzner auction is NL type of auction, price drops with 1 euro when time end if nobody take the server, so just more people want these 2x3TB and take action before it drops to 30 eur limit...
As my professors told me when I was study MBA, supply and demand meet in purest example you can find...
exactly. and thats why those new 'limited offers' stays longer. there is not that much demand at this price (but probably enough to get rid in an acceptable matter of time).
most people are probably looking for cheap storage in addition to a hell of BW - which makes 2x2TB at 19.99 a clearly better offer than the new ones ;-)
Hm..
Stuck on "System configuration". Weird
After installing any OS, you will also see rescue mode option right above ILO/KVM over IP. Activate rescue mode, login via ssh and rest of the process are as per Joodle's site...
You are right about the price. €19.90 would have been better for me. But want to test online.net this time, and see how the server works with Windows and Hyper-V.
But with Hetzner I can get 2 x 3 TB for €30.
Anyone using Proxmox on this machine or any machine at online.net? Did the install via their panel work?

keep trying, yesterday I had to try 3 times before it actually worked once......
RAID0 2TB (Hardware RAID btw)

SECOND.
Always been curious about online.net SSD.
There are still plenty of good deals, for €38 I got an E3 with 4x 1 TB drives and 24GB Ram last week.
Online, why u do dis when I renewed OVH again at the end of the month
Hope the stock will be alive till the next billing!
good speeds except if there is no bandwidth gaurentee whats the point if we only get 1mbit...
lol
If it matters, I'm trying to install exsi and it's not moving on 'System Configuration'
The NAS server with all the images on might be getting slammed.
I used to have a box with them that the proxmox installer was used for, but that was installed ~2 years ago and was retired this month.
Yeah
I'm trying to login with all possible combinations but it just doesn't seem to login.
Yeah ESXi took a while to install but worked at the end.
I got 2 proxmox installation with Online... Installer works I suppose they sell a lot new servers and a lot of people installing at the moment .... happens after a promo ... I'll wait till tomorrow before install
If i remember correct they was Intel 320 (i have a xc with one ssd last year)
Did you compare the other specs? I may be wrong but I thought the low-entry Hetzner products is more or less "no-name" non-server grade hardware. Online.net on the other hand seem to employ server hardware, mainly from HP and Dell.
More than 3 hours for me at the moment.
I have, some times their installation system hangs in middle of installation and it cannot proceed until you contact support, this happened to me twice with the 1115 and they mentioned it to me, but first you can try 2 times if installation time is more than 1 hour contact support and they will fix it.
and it's not proxmox only by the way, it happens randomly on random OS's
This offer is strange. They are experimenting to see what they can sell and how fast. Sure many people would buy the 20 Eur servers and quite some of those who buy might use it and eat quite some bandwidth. With the new offer things are better for them.
How many servers share a Gbit on that kind of offers with no bandwidth guaranteed?
Why not use a TB from the 2x2TB SATA HDD?
The 1TB USB HDD option would be great with the kidechire or their low cost line! And people who paid that much setup fee might not want to leave before quite some time...
does their CC billing show up as a foreign charge or do they do the exchange themselves? I only get CC billin goption.
None has shared Network Benchmark Yet. Curious to see FreeVPS Benchmark at least ! More Nice Benchmark, better always !
You need business level to get this +1TB USB thing... which is 20 eur/mo
It's the 2x2TB model.
Hmm.. atlanta and dallas has slow speed. Maybe i will tr y abit later
Sad news.
@Amitz thanks for the test, would another test with upload speeds be possible?
Yes and no... I know people here says that server grade hardware is the best. But I have had an old i7 2600 with 16 GB RAM and normal HDDs running with 100% uptime the last 9 months. And I was "stupid" to listen to all this server grade, so I upgraded one of my servers to server grade, Xeon E3 1245v2, 32 GB ECC RAM, Enterprise HDDs, iNIC etc etc, paying €12/mo more then I did with the same specs, just a i7 3770 CPU.
I have so good backup routines that server grade has little to say for me. If I loose a HDD on one of my two servers, no worry, all the data is on the other server.
Loose the HDD with my Hyper-V VMs...no problem, all is exported to the other server and vica verca each night, and also home to my server here.
Loose a server, no problem, DNS failover services on all important, at two other providers.
But I have not seen a i7 3770 with 32 GB RAM for €26/mo anymore, so is keeping my XEON.
Those who are sacrificing tears for Guaranteed Bandwidth, can check the BenchMark from @Amitz & @ZweiTiger
A Dedicated Server Provider wouldn't give you 1 Mbit/s Speed at any time. At least, I haven't seen like this. At Hetzner, till today, I got minimum Speed of 60 MB/s. I wouldm't say it that bad & so on Online.Net E3-1220 Server, I had 70 MB/s always.
