1 upgrade storage + 1 NVME AMS pending.
Last in queue for the upgrade request ?
Not only upgrades in queue and not only AMS.
As expected, the orders are delivered even later and the corresponding announcement comes when he's already late. Very poor communication.
i still have NY and VIE pending for provision, but don't mind waiting since i already have 10 other VPSes already provisioned and ready to play with it.
Made a comment and I got all my stuff setup. Good to go. Just waiting on those juicy HK servers now.
Guys, post your ticket number here and you will be preferred. The more often you post the higher the chances he sees your ticket first.

You'll surely be "preferred" if you post your ticket # here and in parallel update your ticket with "Please check my post on LET".
Absolutely, though it's in general recommended to use the LET help desk in this thread instead of the providers ticket system for urgent and to your own product/order related issues.
Now waiting for your tenth anniversary promotion
Uuuuh... my NY-Server just popped up!
Let us know how good it is. This was one of the locations I regret not getting
I've purchased 15 VMs two weeks ago and still waiting the info Ticket #147268
Thanks HostHatch for the sales @hosthatch
It did happen, but Emil wants to make a nice looking album before sharing it. Something that looks cool like https://hosthatch.com/img/office.jpg
Since your order came a day after the promotion expired, we will have to finish provisioning everything and then let update you if we can fulfill your order.
@hosthatch will give a status update within the next days, he's not late enough to apologize too late for being too late again.
Can you please get a refund and move on to a provider who treats you better?
all my orders is now officially delivered just few minutes ago, thankyou @hosthatch..
NvME 2GB New York
Anyone here was lucky enough to grab the bundle sale that includes many small boxes in many locations?
@swat4, yup grabbed the 1G bundle for all 10 locations. it all already provisioned. the last one just provisioned few mins ago. it really was worth the waiting.!!
What's your view on getting a VM with an E5-2690 0 @ 2.90GHz CPU? I know this is a expected CPU to get with HH but I mean, it's 9 years old by now...
I know I've seen HH reply to this somewhere in this thread, stating something like because of using cheaper hardware they can avoid overselling. I'm not an expert on that so perhaps that's true.
Do you think a HH machine will have a better consistent CPU performance compared to other providers running more modern CPU's, like some AMD Epyc variant?
I think the CPU will be still powerful enough for most tasks. Not a beast but for web- or dev-server with low-to-medium usage this should be more than sufficient. Some getting the E-5-2690v2 others E5-2680v2 no big difference and I believe the only two models, at least I can't remember another yabs.
you bet!
Single core GB5 score around 600-650, categorized as pretty good performance.
No, some (I) also got an E5-2690 0 so not all are v2's
So you would not choose to host a production site on a HH machine?
Ohh ok, didn't pay attention to this but I don't expect a big difference performance wise.
This is not what I mean. You can surely host a production site but it depends on what you host. If it's a complex web app to serve 100k users daily or a gameserver not but if it's a forum with a nodejs chat app, I don't see any problem. The CPU will very likely be able to handle this well.
I got two bundles, a 10x bundle and the new locations 3x bundle. The 10x one has been fully deployed now - I just got the last two VPSes, New York and Vienna this morning. The 3x one was a preorder with a delivery date of December 31.
Now I just need to figure out what to use them all for
I've added a few to dnstools.ws, but I've already got servers in some of the locations so I'll need to figure out something else to do with them.
E3 and E5 are still very common. They're decent processors. Even BuyVM were using them until their recent Ryzen upgrade. I think the fact that they're so old makes them quite cheap to acquire second-hand, so performance per dollar is very good. Honestly, if you're paying low-end prices, you can't expect brand new hardware everywhere. Most low-end providers have to cut costs somewhere in order to remain profitable or at least break even - Some use older processors, some use desktop hardware instead of enterprise hardware, etc. I've seen some providers use brand new "Xeon Gold" processors but it's rarer than E3/E5.
Strange, I saw that a single core E3-1270 has GB5 score of 790. I thought E5 is supposed to be more powerful than E3? I guess because of dedication percentage.
It is. Server CPUs are generally geared towards multi thread performance, not single thread. The E5 will definitely beat the E3 in a multithread test.
Get some IP ranges/an AS (maybe from @RickBakkr ) and run your own network
Just got my last server delivered today - thanks for the great deals!
Only didn't order 3x more due to trust issues - I have this rational fear of having too many stuff on a single provider
