Looking forward to getting mine provisioned!
As you know, BS is the majority part of the world..so just dont respond, mind only what matters, respond to them and go on...dont think you will lose any good customer even this way.
1 CPU core (12.5% dedicated, burstable up to 100%)
2 GB RAM
20 GB RAID-10 NVMe
2 TB bandwidth (500 GB in Hong Kong and Sydney)
$15 per year
Is this deal still valid?
@hosthatch Don't take everything so personally that they wrote there. I'm about this "Servarica" post and others. Adequate people understand everything. Blaming you for such opportunities like this flash deals is nonsense.
Thank you that give us such good offers which will help many of us to stay online with our projects in this hard times.
this thread is a reminder that, wherever you go, a decent chunk of the population will turn out to be a bunch of idiots.
Depends on whether you can read.
Interesting to see new hardware type (i5) in London (Slough?). Fast clocks + Nvme yay
This Friday night gon b wild.
Interesting? No I'm actually disappointed by seeing a desktop CPU used in a server that might be used for production use. No ECC support when running databases etc...
I understand your sentiment. But personally I'm a bit more forgiving at the $2.25/8gb price point.
I mean the GB-ram/$ even beats the socks off my 22Eur Hetzner auction dedi.
But yes, I factored in the risk of exotic hardware when I picked the AMS DC where I know it's E5 gen1/2.
FWIW, The LON storage I have from last year's launch was provisioned on E5 nodes(and 10gbit).
I think this time they might be using E5s for the 8gb plans to keep the CPU ratios sane.
Are these from HostHatch?
I'm very confused - the benches look like a dedicated i5 type machines (esp. IOPS which suggests it is single HDD in use and it certainly doesn't look like SSD/NVMe performance unless of course there's a lot of IO going on for some other reason including benches).
I'm really doubting these are VPSs (or that they are from HostHatch at all).
There is one thing I always find very dubious. I understand that it is little money what you pay for the server. And that you should not expect much for it. But to understand that one is always drilled to understand this I find dubious. I don't have a cash cow at home that shits money. If now all these 0815 guys come and tell me you are a stingy, why is there this forum to get a high-end server for 1 euro no ! And that you are using a desktop CPU is morally reprehensible, that is the minimum of what you get for the money. If a mobile CPU was used, that would have been the end of the story.

Now I understand how these unbeatable low prices come about. According to the motto. Hey Willie you still have an old computer. With 128GB RAM yes of course no problem just put it in
I'm starting to think the same. I would be surprised if that was a HH server.
Especially since hosthatch themselves wrote:
Yeah no.
That is not a HostHatch benchmark. We don’t use i5.
Epic! Keep up the awesome work you do and don't listen so much to everyone here if it affects you negatively. We love you
@Broscience Fakenews!
Thank you. Straight from the horses mouth. No more BS.
Zurich benchmark below
Great News! - Looking forward to trying ours out....
Thank you. Now that looks like the genuine article with those IOPS right up there where it doesn't matter anymore (except for measure my IOPS contests).
@hosthatch
Don't waste you time on replying some of these posts, and don't ruin your mood; you're the #1 BF&CM provider for many members this year, too. Some of these people just want to justify missing these deals by finding or imagining faults in the provider's service.
After missing last year's deals, I waited for your April 11 thread, which didn't come this year, but I didn't create tickets, threads, or posts about why you didn't post any deals in April (Anniversary deals). I quietly waited for Black Friday.
To everyone who missed, better luck next time, and be quick. HostHatch's deals (even the flash ones) stay alive for more time than the deals from other providers.
From the CPU clock speed, I think that bench aren't from HH server. Also they never mentioned "SSD" and "HDD" term, they only use "NVMe" and "STORAGE" term.
HH replied that @Broscience posted a fake benchmark.
Why would you do this?
Coz he is a sad little twat?
Yeah, I also don't get the reasoning behind posting this fake bench.
Exactly. Here we have a provider who is giving us really good value for money on some fantastic configurations (at no unreasonable volume/stock levels), is engaging with the community, listens, takes feedback (and is nice enough to apologize!) and yet this thread is filled with a lot of nonsensical look at ticket 987654321 (never mind the other 987654320 people in line, most waiting patiently for their turn to get clarifications/VMs provisioned etc.)
Why can't we at least stop ranting and bothering them about inane issues and make things a bit more welcoming for them to remain engaged?
If we continue to alienate and otherwise dish crap out unreasonably (esp. to undeserving providers), we're ultimately going to be losers (as idlers and as members of what's left of this community).
I would rather buy from providers who are part of a community, listen to feedback and are sensitive to the needs of their customers (via the community) and by being like this we drive them away and make ourselves much the worse for it.
This is why we can't have good things.
Warsaw performance looks awesome too
Oh sweet! I'm (impatiently) waiting in line to get my hands on my own VMs.
I can then sleep with that warm fuzzy feeling of knowing that I have some high quality idlers just an ssh away...
Ooh can't wait to get my LA, NY, AMS & STO machines provisioned
