Out of Stock...
I used this package a couple of years ago for backups until I outgrew it. Always had good service from Wishosting!
Can you post a benchmark? Thanks!
There might be more packages in stock after the first batch of orders is processed.
Any chance of more stock?
Out of Stock...
It is back in stock.. Be fast
Sold out.. hahaha
I saw this post yesterday without any post and was in stock. Now it is ran out xD
I do not need it. I need fully managed VPS :-(
Oh these are premium.
I've been holding onto mine about 28+ months .
They are not suitable for torrents, but every other storage use-case is dandy.
(I imagine rclone to google would be nice; never tested)
Are we allowed to run youtube-dl and upload things thru rclone?
Thanks. Those are some weird dd results...
Missed it.
Ordered but got told to look elsewhere for mail so didnt pay. So maybe thats 1 stock back
Looking to have 1... but not in stock @exception0x876
I got this offer as well, also not very satisfied with those results, especially for a "RAID-5 (SSD-cached)" system. It's damn slow.
Should it be like that @exception0x876 ?
the disk performance is very slow...

For a storage box, what's the issue?
All i can say is LOL
The SSD cache is for reads only. Writes go straight to RAID-5 to guarantee data integrity.
Any chance of this server become in stock again?
Imagine trying to do any sort of large file operations (transferring, archiving, unarchiving, etc.) at like 20 MiB/s, when your box size is 2TB.
Even trying to pull data off quickly can take a long ass time.
If anyone is wishing not keep it please let me know. I'm interested.
is ass time something like dog years ...?
seriously though, definitely good to manage expectations for performance on these deals. The value for me is generally more in the area of long-term reliability etc (and I take nothing for granted in that department either).
However - it would certainly be nice for the network rather than disk to be the bottleneck.
That said ... also keep in mind that benchmarks on a fresh storage node are likely to change as time goes on - one way or another ... Either the node is under greater-than-usual load as people load up their precious - and/or it is not yet full.
Anyhoo - I wouldn't mind having one of these to idle some bits on ... (was taking a nap when it was available again, lol!)
Out of stock
Just managed to grab this excellent deal. Location in Germany.
Worth refreshing page few times a day.
That's the NAT storage deal, good stuff
Yeah noticed a few differences- location, speeds, cpu... though Price and storage are same. :-)
