CharityHost.org: USA Texas VDS 1 @ $5 usd/mo and VDS 2 @ $10 usd/mo: 1 Gbps unlimited

Oh', so now you're a managed services provider too?
I understand your pitch but you need to go and benchmark what's on offer in the industry before claiming your ancient Intel is going to take people out of business. You don't understand the current market demand at all.
Ryzen VDS is available for less with better matched hardware. Once you are asking for $50 plus there is no value proposition compared to going dedicated (based on your offer).
No point going back and forth. I wouldn't even use your master node as a webserver in 2024.
There always is value in VDS vs dedicated. They are different. Trying getting monthly image backups of your dedicated server managed offsite included.
Thank you!

I would like to post this as a poll, but seems you cannot unless you do this on the first post of a discussion.
Open to feedback! Thank you!
@dev_vps you got trial! I dm you.
Thanks @CharityHost_org
One suggestion, if I may, consider splitting managed and unmanaged VDS offers. Not every customer needs managed option.
And not everyone needs unlimited bandwidth, either.
Yes been considering VPS, looking to offer cheaper unmanaged VPS, and adding different hardware. Thank you.
Disk throughtput speeds are in bytes and interfaces are in bits. Interfaces don't reflect real world performance as there is overhead and correction bits eating into the interface speeds.
You still don't understand that sata 6 is your bottleneck. And it'll get worse when they're filled up and no trim support. This what everyone had in 2014.
What? Your yabs maxed at 1.09GBps. 1.09 is less than 1.5GBps. I have no idea what you're referring to.
Managed services for dedicated servers include off-site backup. At least for every time a company I've worked with has. But you're right about cost.
But why are you talking about dedicated servers when you provide VDS?
@TimboJones follow the quotes, I was responding to someone else about dedicated vs VDS. You wont get offisite backups on unmanaged dedicated. We offer optional offsite backups from 1 rolling day up to 7 rolling days and 1 backup a month included with VDS.
To be clear, we do not claimed to be fully managed, it is extended support, not the same as fully managed or unmanaged/unsupported.
Base line is different when idle vs under workload. Yabs says 1.09 GB/s but under load that is. The theoretical technical throughput of the 4 x SSD @ 500 MB/s in HW RAID 10 is 1.333 GB/s per the raid calculators online. That is 10.664 Gbps. Indeed there are losses in performance depending on the amount and frequency of data read and write ops, the RAID controller having cache or not, the different throughput of the drives and other things not related to this configuration (such as how many drives in the RAID 10).
So we have 1.333 GB/s io average max with 4 drives @ HW RAID 10, the ports are not the bottleneck at 6 Gbps x 4 = 24 Gbps (give or take correction and saturation if you wish, but 10.664 Gbps that the drives are capable of is less than 1/2 the sata3 6 Gbps x 4 or x 2 for the RAID 1 bandwidth, however you want to see it, it's complicated because it's also stripped and depends where the read or write is ocurring on the volume blocks across the array). The RAID 1+0 (2x RAID 1 mirrored RAID 0 striped) explained here There are a lot of factors that affect performance, like sequential r/w, random r/w. There is no perfect way to measure the exact IO of an idle system to test underload, and underload the performance is influence and dependent on the IO method and type. Essentially, IO testing is always assumptions in a general sense due to the unknowns about the IO that will be underload, and testing underload will vary on the load rw ratio at any time and the amount of rw ... under load, which is what the yabs showed, a hypervisor under load, but not overloaded by any means.
For transparency, the HPE ssd drives have these claimed performance details:
As to TRIM our HW RAID supports it so do our HPE SSD.

Windows RDP is actually pretty smooth.
@dev_vps looks good! Yes, the network latency and jitter is super low from/to any decent network globally. Great network at the colo. I tested windows but we are not offering it at least not yet but yes RDP is quite smooth here. Decent hardware and network will do that.
Looking into scaling providing unmanaged VPS plan with nvme hosts using Silver/Gold/Platinum CPU's right now. As to EPYC/Ryzen with nvme and ddr5 would be for future commitment.
Hey all! VDS 2 plans now have 50% more vCPU power with 3 vCPU instead of 2 vCPU!
We do accept custom requests for resources.
Thank you!
VDS 1 now $4/mo with first order 50% discount
1 vCPU

Charities, ngo, nonprofits, school staff and school students always get 50% ongoing discount plus 25% first order discount on top.
Both with 1 ipv4 and 1 ipv6 to start.
Will be announcing cheaper VPS with more CPU power using Gold 2nd Gen. Scalable CPU.

I used the code and it says VDS1 50% discount $8 to $4, not $2
I'm checking. Will brb
@mw Sorry I had to correct it. Please use the
LET-75-RIDEcode now.The VDS 2 is $3.75 with this code as well!
I tried for the VDS 2:
@mw thanks for your patience. Was a toggle I needed to do. Try refreshing the cart now.
Order placed, thank you. VDS/VPS, call it what you want, this is a deal!
Appreciated @mw
I opened a ticket because it seems I was assigned 2 cores when 3 were advertised. YABS looks good otherwise!
Fixed YABS
@CharityHost_org
@mw Yes. There was a remaining artifact of the 2 vCPU on the VDS 2 order settings. Thats now fixed to 3 vCPU for all VDS 2 orders
For quick reference the recurring 75% LET discount code for VDS and Optimal Web Hosting here to replace the non LET default promo code in the cart:
LET-75-RIDEFor reference. There is an adjustment to the latest offer. The promo code is valid for all VDS with the exception of VDS 1 (which is not the most interesting or attractive VDS per resources). We changed this to focus on VDS 2 and above so that we are able to sustain the costs of the deliverables. VDS 1 will have the promo code
LET-50-RIDEavailable to it, but not theLET-75-RIDE. This is due to the incurred costs of ip addressing as well as all other costs. It just makes sense to go with VDS 2 or above in that sense for LET LEB users.
