    I guess if it's relatively trivial because it'll be a nice quality of life fix to have.

    Quality of life?

    What was the issue with it ?

    If you click "quote" on a post, it doesn't link back to the original, quoted comment.

    Oh yea... That's pretty irritating actually. So +1 on fixing it.

    Since we need to keep bumping this thread, we just need a topic to chatter if no deals.

    The big discount deal greatly reduces your repair pressure, but it will cause an adrenaline rush! I think it’s a good deal, so where’s the transaction???

    @Caztiel said: So that 1TB Storage drive is shared between all 5 VMs.

    Is that real?

    Well unfortunately on Ticket they said its not possible. I have asked for the reason as I dont really see it as additional cost to them.

    Development costs would be there and most likely not that small as it would have to be tested, adjusted when something else changes, etc.

    Yea... They dont even allow to split it between VMs like 200GB each. But cant complain for $3-$9/yr deal.

    Honestly my $5 1 TB VPS is maybe the best deal I got during BF/CM/Christmas if performance stays the same and the uptime is good.

    That is a real gamble tbh

    At this price there is overselling and abuse of resources by your neighbors.

    Yesterday someone reported 30 40% io wait times

    It should be the other storage backup option. If anyone uses it for near production without a dr strategy is in for a bug surprise

    But yeah if things stabilize and performance sticks one banger deal at this price.

    Of course it's a gamble (as is pretty much on LET), especially with an only 2-month-old ASN, but let's see in a year (or earlier) whether it was a good deal.
