It's an OEM version of HGST HUS724020ALA640, so basically a HP sticker on the disk makes such a difference in price.

i'm struggling with hard drive partition and installing more than one operating system...
Can someone please give me simple, step by step, instructions (create a new partition) thank you in advance
You have some replies in your thread.

I'm just pointing that the test is stupid ... to have some result which is accurate providers should not adopt any new technology....
To prove my point here some test results from inside 3815 KVM CentOS 7 Virtual Machine with XFS
Same will happened with vz with ploop (ok I know ploop is bit fragile but it is the future both VZO and Virtuozzo are defaulting to that)
So choices are drop dd testing or drop new technology...
The only thing that is stupid here is your failure to correctly set up write barrier handling on KVM.
@rm_ this is the default install...
It is the "stupid" default choice of all of the developers of Centos7, Proxmox, Online or stupid dd
Proxmox, (default from online image)
(Only change on hypervisor level is to choose Virtio than IDE when creating VM , Nocache stays)
VM is also using default all just xfs is chosen for the partitions then done// done
edit all default mounts (no nobarrier)
Any new feedbacks on 3915 SSD?
I'm going to replace an old ovh server with this one.
I've compared results above with ovh, looks like online.net has better connection to the US.
me too
Been using it for a month now , speeds are awesome (both Network and Server).
I am hosting one high traffic website on a LNMP stack with around 6M impressions/day and the server is barely getting past 10% of its resource usage (except the storage , which is around 80% used)
I wish i had grabbed a few 2X2TB servers when they were in stock .
promotion ended 2 hours ago there were 25 in stock and after 10 minutes there was no one
they were back again?
Very good server. I got SSD version. It is fully HP, even SSD by HP.
Yes they were , and i again grabbed a few of them -- Pretty nice servers and deal (no gauranteed BW though , will have to avoid using the servers for anything BW intensive )
I wish online.net was a bit more precise about their bandwidth policy. Does 200 mbit/s mean they will ask to reduce usage at 200.01 mbit/s average? Does "no guaranteed bandwidth" mean they won't even accept 50 mbit/s average use?
it was confirmed to be 200Mbps.
Support said 300
Can you please link me to the source of that info ?
It's in a ticket to me. I ordered it and then was experiencing slow downloads. This has since sorted itself out. I was a bit pissed off as they were all giving us the run around in terms of information that day.
I like how Online.net's support is always so polite , even after you bash them . This is some good customer support.
Thank you for the picture.
I bashed them after we had been waiting 6+ hours for a simple response to our questions. All of us were ignored by staff.
They said 300 to me. The same question....
The bandwidth varies between specific offers.
Seems some get A* support and others not so much...
I think one reason for the whole bandwidth vs. guaranteed bandwidth confusion is language-related. For example, have a look here:
http://documentation.online.net/fr/serveur-dedie/offres/serveur-dedibox-limited-edition-1115/start
It says: "Bande passante: 200 Mbit/s"
Then go to the English page:
http://documentation.online.net/en/serveur-dedie/offres/serveur-dedibox-limited-edition-1115/server-dedibox-limited-edition-1115
It says: "Internet bandwidth guaranteed: 200 Mbit/s"
In other words, they translated "Bande passante" with guaranteed bandwidth. Now, if you go to the 3815-3915 page: http://documentation.online.net/fr/serveur-dedie/offres/serveur-dedibox-limited-edition-3815-3915/start
It says: "Bande Passante : 200 Mbps"
There is no English language available for this offer. Obviously, given how they translated the French page for the 1115, you'd think that the same "Bande Passante : 200 Mbps" passage would translate into the same "bandwidth guaranteed".
wrong thread, sorry
np I forgive you
Thanks! :-)
Yup. The other day I asked for a server I cancelled to be un-cancelled as I found a use for it. Less than 60 seconds from sending the ticket in it was responded to and un-cancelled. That was the best support I've had from Online...
The time in which the image was took I was incredibly stressed as I was getting less than 2MB/s to the US and such so I was like "Oh god. We've all been screwed." and I needed to know if there was a guaranteed bandwidth or not. The next day the connection was back to how it should be but the worry was they were going to turn round and just be like "Nope! NO guarantees" sort of deal.
Basically they have good and bad days on this day it was incredibly bad. About 20 people waiting on a confirmation and nobody responding so everyone was stressed.
I moved one website from ovh to online.net and after 2 weeks I feel ovh network is better. However ping are the same.
online.net pros
fast support (sales questions)
HP hardware, ECC memory
ovh pros
better network
better control panel
better connectivity for mena region
I will move back this website to the ovh next year.
