E3v5, 64GB RAM, 2x512GB NVMe SSD for 60EUR, anyone able to offer this in US

This is the server in question, just wondering if any US provider can pricematch this.

    I doubt that. E3v3 itself would be that price, not to mention that huge RAM and SSD and the new v5 platform.

    nice server...

    Hetzner have some nice new systems - at the moment I think this is the best EU deal for E3v5

    Just that the OP asked for an US equivalent. And posted the link to the new Hetzner servers. Did you even read the first post? ;)

    IF you split that 119 by, say, 12 months, that comes out to be 9.92 per month added to that, convert to USD and it's about 77 dollars a month?

    I don't know anything cheaper but just wanted to say that we're not pricematching 59 EUR but really more like 70 EUR

  • darknessendsdarknessends Member

    @loot : what if the person keeps it for 24 months? or 36 months?

  • lootloot Member

    5 and 3.3 tacked onto the 59, and I think it's around .8 EUR - 1 USD atm. But is anyone really keeping a box for 3 years? Same box wouldn't be worth 62.3 EUR/m in 3 years I reckon.

    That's a big if, most don't keep servers more than a few months, and LET is even worse as most of this community will jump ship to save a few dollars.

    True. I feel I've been a decent customer to you guys at least. Think it's coming up for my 3rd year with you.

    Wondering what sort of new stock you've got honestly.

    Yes, I do. Two days ago I just dropped a 41-month-old server and got two PX61-NVMe. They are great. I have another one which is even older, I will migrate it next month.

    @hostingwizard_net Which OS did you put on them? I noticed they dont offer CentOS 6 on those NVMe servers, any idea why?

  • WHMAMP_COMWHMAMP_COM Member

    Do they offer some kind of DDoS Protection?

    I'm able to select CentOS 6.7 on the VNC Installer on mine no issues,

    Yea I saw that. I just noticed it when I was looking at the product page under software (https://www.hetzner.de/ot/hosting/produktmatrix/rootserver-produktmatrix-px) and saw this: "CentOS 6.7 (N/A for PX61-NVMe)"

    Just curious if there are any driver, compatibility or performance issues in CentOS 6 and NVMe. :-)

    Maybe, no reason not to use 7.x unless you have a very good reason to use 6.x.

    @emilv I use Debian 8. NVMe requires a special driver, not available by default in old distributions. According to Wikipedia, you need a 3.3+ kernel, with 4.0+ bringing a lot of improvements. Debian 8 uses 3.16 (I haven't upgraded yet).
