    If that vm hosted on single node, how these become HA? Make nonsense, another dirty marketing trick.

    They want to creat niche market but failed from beginning.

    Nope.

    so I did some more occasional speedtests, all ended up remarkably under 100 Mbps in down- and upload (on a shared Gbps port).

    Atlanta, GA, US         Coloat          4.06MB/s
Dallas, TX, US          Softlayer       4.10MB/s
Seattle, WA, US         Softlayer       2.95MB/s
San Jose, CA, US        Softlayer       3.28MB/s
Washington, DC, US      Softlayer       2.00MB/s
Tokyo, Japan            Linode          5.36MB/s
Singapore               Softlayer       1.95MB/s

    I don't need much traffic at all but would like to be able to burst on the connection sometimes. so I am sorry, but definitely won't keep this box.

    next stop: delimiter, haha :-)

    Can you PM me your server IP. Id like to take a look into those speeds.

    Maybe open a ticket about it ?

    This is mine:

    @Ernie Is this supposed to have 100GB SSD or 120GB SSD? I remember reading it as 120GB when it first came out and today when ordering I see only 100GB, can we get that adjusted if we ticket in?

  • sinsin Member

    So how is everyone liking these? I'm really tempted to pick one up. Is the Buffalo network any better nowadays?

    We are altering the plans a little. However I can honor the 100GB SSD for you. Just open a ticket.

    I can confirm that @Ernie did some tests on the same VM to investigate.

    He has been very supportive and fair, yet I sadly don't see the same results on the same wgets he used, esp. for those softlayer testfiles.
    but while we were not able to reproduce the same results on both sides and the issue may not have been on his side at all, he offered me a refund which I do find very respectable.

    maybe they decide later to allow nested virtualization on such a product, I'll have a look into HVH product range again ;-)

    Hope you are able to continue working with HVH. @Ernie works very hard to please, and we've done a ton of work recently in Buffalo to increase download speeds by changing the way our DDOS protection works.

    It's certainly better than before but most of the time the network performance is sub-par compared to other networks / hosts.

    The problem I see in Buffalo is that the speed cannot be sustained. It start ok-ish then falls at some Mb/sec or even Kb/sec. If your lucky you'll get some good benchmark results, but not often.

    We're definitely not seeing anything like that from our data. Send me a PM with info and I'll look into it. Please make sure your using a dedicated server to test, as a VPS is not a reliable reference point.

    Does the LA node have ddos protection?

    Not at this time. However we do have DDoS protection available for purchase in Buffalo.

    If that can help some people here with this little box I managed to install OpenVZ and OpenVZ web panel on top of it.

    I've launched a container and everything is working fine!

    Linux centos 2.6.32-042stab113.21 #1 SMP Wed Mar 23 11:05:25 MSK 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    Just follow this guide and say thanks to @Jarland :)

    Geekbench for the vz container: http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/5984199

    Is this offer still available? @Ernie and can you tell me if it comes with ddos protection by default or that is an addon?

    @Falzo any success in setting up virtualization with these dedicated resources?

    Cool bench so you were able to setup VMs with the resources? What about the ddos mitigation? is it an addon or comes by default with the offer?

  • FredQcFredQc Member

    Yes, I have two VMs running at the moment. I don't see any slowyness, the ssd space is fast and the cpu threads are really dedicated.

    No ddos mitigation available on these "Smart servers" IIRC.

  • WebGuruWebGuru Member

    @FredQc thanks for sharing your experience i thought their Buffalo DC got ddos protection by default. Also the prices are increased now :(

    If you're fine with ovz or maybe lxc this should be possible. No kvm because of lacking cpu flags though... Can't tell if they changed their policies on that one by now.
