I'm looking for someone to take over my spare-server (E3-1230v2, 32GB RAM, 4*750GB 84€/month )
Hello!
Actually I'm having a server which I do not longer need, but was to busy to cancel it (month-to-month contracts, but if you like to cancel you have to send a mail 14 days before the month ends as a German customer)
It has the following specs
- E3-1230v2
- 32GB RAM
- 4 750GB HDDs with HW-RAID 10
- 30 IPs
- 2TB "fair use (means like if you are going to use 2,5 or 3TB one month it's fine)" @ 100Mbit
and is costing 84€ / month.
To get in contact with me, the best would be, sending a mail to [email protected]
Datacenter: Accelerated in Frankfurt am Main in Germany.
(I asked the provider, and additional BBU would make +13€/month)

It has raid 10 but doesn't have a BBU?
what provider is it with?
Datacenter: Accelerated in Frankfurt am Main in Germany.
Yes.
Not everyone uses BBU's as its not "required" to accomplish RAID-10, nor does everyone enable "write cache" -- Moving forward, YES! A BBU is a good thing!
HW Raid 10 without BBU = sleepless nights imo, either you have the data loss concern in the event of a power cut or you have the tickets coming in regarding performance with no write cache.
I would rather use mdadm than HW Raid 10 with a small cache and no BBU.
That said I am considering this, would make a nice test node.
Is this with ReliableSite?
He stated it's in Germany and ReliableSite is in Choopa DC at NJ, USA so no it's not at RS?
Oops, never noticed Germany! Specs look nice though
I guess i'm not getting an answer. Oh well....
To? It's stated there is no BBU
Thought it was not a direct question, but a statement?
Yes, already tons of people said the server does not have a BBU, but it is possible to add one from the provider - Also I don't see a problem with not having a BBU? As long as write-cache is disabled... ok, for production it is better to have a BBU... anyway I think that shouldn't be any issue, what do people expect from 84€?!
the world... ..burnt starbucks coffee delivered to their front door every day at 3:45pm.. a server that eats cassettes and cream cheese.
Now I miss the "Thanks"-Button :P
I don't understand the point of having HW RAID 10 on multiple hard drives with write-cache disabled... but I don't pretend to know everything. Is there a background to that?
Read OP
What do u think ? It is a nice offer.
looks nice, do they allow virtualization?
CPU is vt capable, so yeah I don't see why not.
Price without VAT?
Well, I'm still waiting on reply for my PM.
I'm pretty busy at the moment (have to do lot of work, etc). Server is already gone, but thanks for all your interest.
Provider is/was IP-Projects, was a server from their special deals.
Anyway, want to go to bed now, good night you all.
Yes, the low price of 84€
@Patrick: Thanks for helping out by answering some questions
Price is with VAT
Theoretically 84 / 119 * 100, but I don't know if the provider will do this.
Traffic 18.00-20.00 EUR per TB as far as I know.
Oh, Michael, overtraffic is 25EUR then (with VAT)
this is a really great deal. 30 ip's wow lol wtf. I would pull the trigger but unfortunately my lantency to europe is pretty severe
