Cheap amazing KVMs that I've been gatekeeping for a while now

edited September 27 in Must See Deals

Hey! I’ve been using Datalix (aff) / Datalix (non-aff) for a considerable amount of time and I believe that it’s about time I stop gatekeeping such a good service.

They recently moved to the Tornado DCs in Frankfurt, which made their KVM’s bandwidth go for 50TB per instance, their small KVM with AS203446 DDoS Protection looks like:

x1 Xeon vCore (Xeon E5-2680v2, transferrable to a node with a Xeon Gold 6150 with no extra costs)
6GB DDR3 ECC
40GB NVMe
1Gbit Uplink, 1x IPv4 + 1x /64 IPv6 subnet
50 TB of traffic, if you exhaust it 1Mbps until the next billing month

for €2.45/mo :O

Their uptime has been just around amazing too

Dropping this out here so that you guys can dive in the deals too. Last year they made a flash deal for €3/mo that had 16GB DDR3 + 3x Gold 6150 + 15TB traffic + 75gb NVMe that lasted a good 24 hours, but needless to say it was amazing. CPU steal sits at 1-3% which, let’s be honest, is nothing for these prices, I’m still renewing that deal plan to this day.

But does it end there? NOPE!
They also sell dedicated for dirt cheap prices, like the one on sale rn:

Intel Xeon E3-1270 V3
32 GB RAM (DDR3)
500GB SSD + 4TB HDD
1GBit Uplink + 100TB Traffic
€ 34.95/mo

So yeah, just wanted to drop this out here. Hope it helps you guys! I've been a pretty loyal client to them for the past new years, and just recently opened up to purchase one from Aquatis, but you get what I mean

Aff code: lesbians direct URL
Any profits that I get from affiliate URLs will be directed towards helping the LES community, I was thinking about setting up a free hosting service for community members like microLXC or what @host2play is doing, we'll see.

  • So where/what are the direct (non affiliated) order links to them?

    You might want to include them in your post.

    Forgot to remove it as I was just copy-pasting stuff around and editing the post on demand, can @AuroraZero edit it for me?

  • Post looks like just ad but few questions:
    1. 2.56.246.31 is for package "Small 2,45" / with Combahton / in Tornado DC?
    2. May be you now lg.datalix.de locates in Equinix FRA-7 with AS203446 or in Tornado too? Just different latency from my location.
    3. Why you say 50TB if datalix.eu/2024-sale show that Small package include 5 TB only?

    1. Yes, it is, I rented one just so I could get that test IP, DM me if you want shelled/root access as it’s gonna be an idler until it expires LOL
    2. They might’ve not updated it yet, I’ll open a ticket asking, but they have servers in both and are transitioning to Tornado
    3. All VPSes got upped to 50TB traffic with the Tornado DC acquisition, officially announced by Florian (one of the two owners) in their Discord server
  • Actually, no, I change my mind, I’ll host a fancy Pterodactyl node on this test IP!

    Ah, so in the end all their equipment will be on Tornado with comahton?

    Thanks for answers!

  • Yep!

    It is planned to adjust all KVM packages in Tornado according to traffic, this will happen during the day.

    Then last thing why your GB score is so low (it's low because vps was provisioned on E3-12xx v2 I think). :astonished:

  • Why i think about avoro when see the VPS deals?

    Think of it like this, if it says Datalix in the Host section in Yabs, it’s reselling, they made a HUGE view in the reselling market but their plans are amazing on their own too

    Hi @yucchun!

    Are you saying that Datalix is reselling Avoro?

    Do I remember right that Avoro was connected with PHP-Friends?

    Do I understand right that the people leading Datalix are different than the people leading Avoro and also different than the people leading PHP-Friends? So that Datalix, Avoro, and PHP-Friends are three independent groups of people?

    Thanks! Best wishes!

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    Don't know about Datalix, but Avoro and PHP-Friends both belong to the same company, dataforest GmbH.

    No, no! I’m saying that there are a lot of hosts out there that resell Datalix, Datalix is a legitimate hosting provider and they’ve sent proof of their servers alongside owning their own AS
