How do we know if we have another hard disk attached like 4tb HDD?
never give up on ovh gambling, the more you order the sweeter it is!
@allthemtings relax
you will get exactly whats coming for you
As soon they pop up on the API.

Should be able to order them, so don't delay, set up the bot today.
Got a KS-2 4x2TB in UK (ERI). Renewal date is 12th Dec, looking for 37.98euro (monthly + setup). Transfer to any EU/UK account.
At this point, is there even any chance of making a successful order with all these bot scripts running 24/7?
hold, hold, hold...Hodor....
probably not. even the bots are competing against one another for the cancellation after paying RNG
The stock vanished from servers that where quite popular within 1 hour.
You could order them 1 hour ahead via the API.
So you don't have to I guess, but risky and you get yours delivered earlier.
I did twice on the 6th, at first I ordered a LE-C which was delivered in 8 minutes and with the 64GB upgrade. And a few hours later I saw that the LE-B was available and i managed to order one in GRA.
The LE-B has not been delivered yet.
Was talking to an OVH reseller about these deals and they told me they simply ask their OVH Account Manager to create payment orders for any servers, even if out of stock, and then pay to get in line. Talk about privilege.
They said they got KS-A orders too but were advised to not bother paying for them as they will most likely get cancelled due to lack of parts.
Feels like the PS5 rush all over again. The sad part is there were people paying these scalpers $800-1200 for a console that costed $599. If people can band together and not pay a dime over what the servers are worth for transfer, perhaps LET could defeat the scalpers here.
I knew it, it was rigged all along.
The problem with that is these servers have some crazy upgrades for example 2x1.92tb nvme rather than the actual server config of 2x450gb nvme 32-64gb ram etc etc so they can charge what they like unfortunately
I've ordered a KS-A (BHS) and KS-LE-B (FRA) on the 5th. Still pending...
Yes. Run on a reliable machine and build your own code that fits your requirements.
Avoid unneccessary API requests. Because it is available publicly the race will be on the automated scripts speed so reducing the unrequired API calls and use multithreading can improve chances
What's the run count on your bot? @Neoon
Running @Neoon 's KS-Auto script, it pings every 5 seconds I think for stock. Don't they have a rate limit or something if you go multithreading?
Yes, I didn't use a bot to get my servers. I had to follow this thread religiously and get a thousand emails so I get the timing right.
The cart you create, expires, after a while, the bot is counting up to re-create the cart in time before OVH deletes your cart.
No I know how the code works, I am talking about the number of runs in your current bot running instance.
Mine reached around 11k and then I killed it in the morning, may be will start later again.
If you want to buy for example 5 or more different configs it is a good idea to get the DC list. Or for example if there are the BlackFriday servers and user try to order them too it is a good idea to fetch the catalog on a different thread as it is a very high amount of data.
Have you checked his script? Is not already optimized or ?
Every 2 seconds, I am not aware of any rate limit.
However play nice, I suggest against running like 10 instances at the same time.
I can rewrite the bot to support multiple running instances yes.
But right now, you already on the front lines, just keep an eye on the sale.
It is optimized, the idea behind my script is very different.
Is KS-LE-B or KS-LE-E on BHS North America datacenter? I got offers to sell the servers but only in France.
LE-E yes, but LE-B is only in France and Germany.
