Hmhm, interesting.
Any Benchmarks?
What kind of virt do they use?
Standard KVM
and this was my 2 core one http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/3135666
And you can do spoofing! YEAH! and now with 1Gbit/s FOR MOREE POWEEEEER
2TB TB HDD + SSD Boost / 25 EUR , totally worth
What about iO?
Well, this sounds impressive for that price. Is there some catch? Can some Contabo customer comment?
i will run a test when i get home but it's quite fast no slowdowns or lag.
i am a contabo customer
the only catch is the bandwidth part
"Unlimited traffic: No additional costs due to traffic (if average traffic consumption continuously exceeds 60 Mbit/s over a timespan of at least 5 days the connection is switched to 10 Mbit/s)"
is this host even reliable? such cheap pricing...
Their network is utter shit.
for you maybe.. and i seem to recall you came out with this nonsense the other day (despite the vps only having 100Mbps connectivity)
With what nonsense did I come out? Oh, totally forgot to mention that the company owner scammed a lot of people back in the days, but that's irrelevant, right? Just google "euros4click".
you was complaining about speeds and when i pointed out that it was 100Mbps you failed to reply.
can i ask where are you from? i am from the UK and can easily max out my connection to contabo.
What the fuck are you even talking about? I'm not a customer of contabo and certainly will never become one. I didn't complain about their network speed.
I won't support a datacenter that was built up with scam money and wouldn't even exist today if Michael Bölke woldn't have ripped off a lot of people.

This guy has studied Law. WTF?
no need for profanity just makes you look like a moron.
so the network is not bad, you just do not like them... please take that stupid rant elsewhere and provide a source for these serious accusations (i would be interested myself).
"Their network is utter shit." what exactly makes it bad? and your reply on that other thread was after someone posted some speed tests, i think you are getting lost with all this nonsense you are talking.
How can you call a network as utter shit if you don't even use it?
As for me, I have since half a year now a medium vps from contabo and I have to say, for the price, the specs and the speed to greece is very good.
Thanks for putting my words totally out of context, you said to me that I would have complained about their network speed and I said that I didn't complain about it as I don't really care because I don't use them, but I know that their network is bad.
I didn't reply to a speedtest thread of a contabo vps.
I didn't even post in that thread: http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/1340603/#Comment_1340603
My name is not even alike these names, lol.
Put up or shut up. (meaning prove it or shut up)
your comments where quite clear, i fail to see how you come to that conclusion (of the network being bad).
Somebody seems to be pretty butthurt. Affiliate them a bit more, you seem to defend them and recommend them in every single thread.
Wait, you mean one has to have been a client to badmouth a provider? In LET?
not at all, i simply said provide proof of this nonsense i even said i would be interested to read it. but you still post nothing.
you are just some angry person by the sounds of it perhaps you need to get out more?
I find it strange though he comes out with such nonsense and provides no proof them goes and accuses me of being an affiliate LOL!
I only affiliate 1 company and that's livedrive
Yet more nonsense.

Go translate it yourself. euros4click (one of his previous sites) failed to pay out their webmasters for a full year. The site was shutdown and nobody got the money.
Perhaps the company (it was under) closed, ever think that?
Well, that sums up that ... certainly scam, but also karma.
unfortunately , contabo have a LOOOOOOT of bad reviews.
Do they allow private torrents?
well i run btsync am sure most providers will allow torrents providing it's legal ones only.
Had VPS, took down entire DC with DDoS (sorry, lol nope) - They refunded me in full and provided a rescue system with new IP to get data, was good. Paid like 25EUR for 20GB RAM and 2TB HDD.
CPU was mediocre, certainly not more than 2 cores dedicated (IIRC benchmark somewhere around 2000, which would be pretty much 1/4th of an i7) - by CPU flags it was some sort of i7 with probably 64GB RAM (non ECC) so likely 4 20GB VMs (64GB available, 80GB sold, some overselling).
HDD seemingly dedicated but i did not fill it up, likely a RAID1/10 of like 4x4TB (8TB useable, 4 VMs).
Network "eh", you'd think with their upstreams it would be good - The routes are not bad, but it seems the ports are oversold at times. Mnet also has some capacity issues on private peerings it seems.
Yea, very questionable history on that guy.
which benchmark? where you using a detailed one? (such as geekbench)
