KS-LE-1 RBX:
Processor : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1231 v3 @ 3.40GHz
RAM : 31.1 GiB
KS-LE-1 GRA:
Processor : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1231 v3 @ 3.40GHz
RAM : 31.3 GiB
Edit: fixed the RBX stats
Congratulations.
I cant justify even attempting this one since the LE-B is better in every way and also cheaper even if you hit a lottery like you did
Yes, OVH birthday offers was much better than BF offers.
What command is this?
That one is nice lotto if you missed the biggus diskus KS-LE-B, but it doesnt compete for sure.
Ok, this is not bad at all.
Both SSDs are KINGSTON SEDC500M1920G.
Is KS-LE-1 having ECC ram? I would assume it does not.
Plus: (e.g. with German VAT) you would need close to 7 months to gain in comparison on KS-5 prices (because of setup fees) plus KS-5 has better CPU, ECC ram and NVMe (but albeit not much lottery chance). So I do not think that a KS-LE-1 is attractive.
I do wonder though if the KS-LE-5 would have some lottery surprises as it looks like a re-labeled KS-Mystery to me.
That's my script which I try to update and improve as I find more different disks. Those SMART parameters can have same id but different meaning, so I welcome more tests: https://gitea.jnd.ovh/jnd/disk-test
They did remove those from the black-friday deals page (at www.ovh not the list at eco.ovh) so I do not think there is much hope.
I ordered the SYS-1 server with 2x512GB NVMe drives which is 10 % sale due Black Friday.
Upgraded CPU, public network 1 Gbps both way.
ECC ram
Congrats on winning lotteries lads
and a mobo supporting ECC? Or are we in Xeon E3-1245v2 hilarity again with OVH? As order page does not mention ECC.
The gambling is real
It works
Full YABS RBX:
and GRA:
I tried the IMPI on the SSD version in GRA and RBX and both work, it's an actual server motherboard.
Before I set-up my stuff on the Kimsufi, I gotta ask, does OVH replace old disk with passing SMART but 70 000+ hours of power on time?
They might, but these are fine I think.
Not sure if they will but you may get even older. As long as it's healthy it's fine.
@jnd @fredo1664 @zrj766 sounds actually like this is far better than what they once did with the Xeon E3-1245v2 and consumer board without ECC support. Thank you.
KS line is typically old disks.
they replace broken drives with working drives, yeah.
remember:
They should. They are canceled KS-LE-2 from last year which should come with ECC ram. Price went down from €18 to €15.
Today order KS-LE-5 in WAW, 500/1000 ipv4&ipv6
SYS-1
antyone got that cheap kimsufi with 2x nvme disks 1.9b or at least 2x. 1tb ? msg me
There were some talk about the KS-LE-5 being the Mystery, did anyone actually ordered one and got it delivered?
I concur
When is the eco line refresh meant to happen?
