Yes, slow drip of the rest over the coming months that "of 98" means that until the end of the year a total of 98 will drop.
Is 250MB of RAM enough to run lightweight torrent downloads? Or is this 250MB machine just for data storage and not intended for torrent downloads?
Yes, 250mb is enough
Which client are you using?
The default client
Deluge, rTorrent can work with 250MB on PM boxes. Tried them before.
On another note, @PulsedMedia will there be no more 250GiB SSD boxes then this August?
Any Object Storage (S3) offers?
There are actually no limits on place except disk. For seedboxes.
Dear lord.
seems like we will never get it.
€1.99/m seedbox is pretty good deal. €9.99/y 1TB storage box is also good for dumping backup (lol)
Yes, all of them support S3 storage -- just install your preference.

Many options. You can even build a high availaiblity cluster rather trivially.
Yes, something like this -- but one per reply... oops forgot that from the ruels.
This will be handled as an exception like this, but others one per reply.
9.99€ YEAR MINITROPHY IS COMING
Good news for those wanting to get the 6.99€ a year thing, we just crossed 3 rungs on the giveaway milestones in one f'ng go!
That means over the enxt few days there will be a lot of drops, and the minidrop for 9.99€ is 100 slots. This might be delayed to end of next week, as we have bunch of new servers racked waiting install and it would be nice to distribute to new servers
Keep watching the page // Discord eternal campaign page for these.
TYVM
I get it, that's a good way (from your perspective) to gain and keep attention because quite some people will look daily and/or follow your discord.
I suggest you at least offer a way to enter one's email address to get notified when you "drop" fresh stock.
Edit: How much is additional traffic per TB (and month)?
Reason I ask is that a storage box of x TB (disk) is next to worthless if egress traffic is limited to 250 GB.
It's like listening to the news on the radio versus reading the morning paper my man. The early bird gets the worm!
I believe his discord server has notifs for when stock opens/deals drop
See: https://pulsedmedia.com/clients/index.php/store/the-eternal-vainamoinen
It is a soft cap, once you exceed your limit, you will be throttled to 100mbps.
Extra Traffic purchased as an add-on looks like it costs $5.67 for 1TB/month, $14.99 for 2TB/month, etc.
The cheaper option is likely to buy an additional promo seedbox and take advantage of its higher traffic int/out AND the un-metered interconnect between pulsed media's internal network. and link to two via fuse or rclone.
I'm already waiting well over an hour. So much for "instant setup" ... :
That's not what "sold out" means.
WTF, just annoying marketing and promotion.
Yes, with a big *.
Every server will be running from swap and all hosts on the node will suffer.
Is there evidence that the host is using swap?
Can you run 256MB RAM without swap and without crashing?
Oh, you meant the guest would be using swap and the node would suffer from I/O. I thought you meant the host was using swap to oversell RAM.
But yeah, Alpine and rtorrent can easily fit in 256 MB without thrashing the disk. If every idiot tries to install Debian or Ubuntu though, it'll be a clusterfuck.
It's not a VPS though, so you're limited to 250mb for whatever applications you want to run, the OS overhead doesn't count. That said, the two nodes I checked each have 7 gigs of swap configured. One was about 50% utilized and the other 75%. Users can install into the raid array, but not the OS drive, so I don't think the swap is dragging node performance down. That said, it's possible to break out of the 250mb limit. I realized I was doing it by accident. I could see that having a more pronounced impact if other users are doing it.
I have waited more than 2 minutes for an email/service. I would suggest creating a ticket.
There was a bug and some of the 8TB Seedboxes are still pending provisining. While 99.9% are instant, sometimes delays occur and i think the email even says if not instant allow upto 48hrs.
Can we know the stats in advance for this offering?
Do these storage boxes support rsync?
