    Managed to snatch a KS-4 in LIM/Germany with 2x 450GB NVME, 16GB ram.

    Only 8TBW on them.

    Also, 1Gbps down and 500Mbps up.

    Since when are OVH limiting bandwidth on Eco servers that aren't in APAC?

  • Possibly 8K on NvMe

  • Looking a KS with 1G unmetered port.

    I think that's the writes on the disks.

    That is correct.

    KS-5 was also available in LIM.
    Why not KS-5?
    What's better about KS-4?

    Wasn't available with SSD. And I already have a KS-5 with 2x4TB HDD. But that one will not be used anymore as I switched everything to the KS-4 now.

    I don't think there will be deals like last year though.

    Edit:

    I did create an order for the KS-B via the API. Waiting till it goes out of stock, wondering if they still randomly deliver servers with some better specs. Worth the gamble for €12 I guess.

  • @barbarza said:
    So apparently OVH ( @OVHcloud ) watch this forum…. I had a bit of an idea…

    Take all the old components you have lying around and allow users to assemble servers choosing from these components. Keep the systems cheap - average system around $10 - $12 per month. Users can choose CPU, RAM, storage, bandwidth, etc.

    And you’re happy to handle all the heavy assembly work at no extra cost?

    Ah I guess it’s time to ask the bot to grab a couple of invoices next time the KS-B comes back on sales. I haven't been lucky with these so far, I want my 'nice' KS-B too now.

  • sadly they are barely usable for my use cases with 120gb and the lottery seems too bad here. i hope they have something around 10€ with more space on BF.

    BF last year was terrible overall. The highlight of last year was the flash sale for Kimsufi which had the KS-LE-x range. If we don't see a flash sale this year, there will be nothing good available on the low end. And sadly that will boost the prices of the existing KS-LE transfers.
