2 vCPU 8GB RAM 10 Gbit $4/mo + Question

Advin

Hello,

It has been very long since I have posted an offer on LES! Here is one:

High Frequency (2 vCores)
8GB DDR4 ECC Memory
60GB NVMe SSD Storage
Fair Use Bandwidth (10 Gbit)
Located in Nuremberg, DE
$4.00/month - no setup fees
https://clients.advinservers.com/store/europe-kvm-standard-vps

We also have some availability in Los Angeles with 2TB bandwidth, 1 Gbit.

High Frequency (2 vCores)
8GB DDR4 ECC Memory

2TB Bandwidth (1 Gbit)
Located in Los Angeles, CA
$4.00/month - no setup fees
https://clients.advinservers.com/store/los-angeles-kvm-standard-vps

We had one in Singapore too but we are sold out there, similar offer with 250GB bandwidth w/ 10G and at $4.50/month instead of $4.00/month.

Now... to the question:
I don't know if you have been following us, but recently we've had a bit of trouble keeping things in stock! We've recently moved almost all of our locations to owned hardware, and shipping hardware is costly and takes a lot of time.

If you had to choose a location to receive a major restock that would last a while (including for these $4/month plans), which one would you choose? Feel free to comment or answer in the poll. While we technically have availability in Nuremberg and Los Angeles, it is extremely limited availability 😟

Nuremberg yabs? Thank you.

IPs are not charged if choosing yearly billing cycle. Is this a bug?

GeekWanderer

IPv6 available?

Yes, it’ll be fixed shortly

We can offer individual addresses but not subnets in NBG. We’re working on subnets soon and expect to have it by next week in NBG.

Will 7950x vds in nl get a major restock?

@advin nice offer. just one question: what is the special les discount code? KVM Standard XS seems standard offer on your webpage.

AND

if i switch to EUR, the KVM Standard XS is €7,52 monthly and KVM Standard S is also €7,52 monthly.

lapua

@Bogddan yabs is for KVM Standard XS Nürnberg, right?

@ehab @Mumbly is advinserver reliable?

Very good offers. I have paid for one VPS it's located in Los Angeles. This VPS port is 1Gbps.
Can you offer IPV6?

one more question. where is the advinserver headquarter? I can't find any imprint or further information about the provider on the website.

I doubt that they ever going to have BGP in Skylink / Eygelshoven.
I asked them for a /48 Prefix, best they could do was a /64.

We can most likely do a /48 prefix for a $15 one time setup fee, we are offering servers in Nuremberg now where we have much more control as we own all of the hardware rather than Skylink.

BGP sessions are unfortunately not possible at this time but could be introduced in the future

We can, open a ticket, individual addresses for now but /64 subnets coming soon.

We have an address, phone number, and email listed at the bottom of our website, but we don't technically have an office or headquarters. I have looked into getting an office at some point, but for now it is just a team of 2 people and we both live far away from each other, so there is not really any need for one (even then, pretty much everything we do is online other than maybe building servers, so an office is not really required).

Sorry about this, since it's a new product the exchange rates still haven't updated. Should be updated now. I marked this deal as a regular offer which fits under the $7/month guidelines, so no need to make this LES exclusive. Maybe in the future I will bring back some LES Exclusive offers like we used to frequently do This one I just wanted to post to LES because I felt like stock would run out quickly

Nice to see you back. Is there any snapshot/ backup feature added? And is custom ISO installation easy now? Abd still using RAID-0 for some nodes?

diskspeed is noticeably slower than here in this test:

Disk speeds can sometimes vary depending on the host node that you are placed on, sometimes we use Gen4 and sometimes we use Gen3, almost always enterprise drives. I would try and run that test again, perhaps someone else was running a disk benchmark or a Yabs or maybe the IO activity on the node was (for some reason) abnormally higher than normal, given that we started onboarding a lot of new VPS's.

Backups/snapshots are not available still unfortunately, it's a bit of a logistical challenge to do without having issues. Sadly we still require a ticket for custom ISO mounting.

We have some legacy nodes with no RAID or RAID0, but our newer nodes are usually RAID5/RAID10 and we are working on completely phasing out the old nodes. All drives are enterprise drives, typically Kioxia CD-6 or Intel P4510.

We will be receiving a shipment of another 2TB of RAM tomorrow, will evaluate where to send it to. Maybe Singapore, Los Angeles, or Nuremberg, should keep stock for at least 3-4 weeks

Also saw that Tokyo was popular in the poll, will have to see, currently we are with HostUniversal but we haven't really done colo with them in Tokyo - will have to see if there is availability and at what cost for future expansion. Nuremberg or Los Angeles might especially be ideal because we have transit directly and space with the DC directly rather than working with a reseller.
