    Retry, there was a country on the block list that has been removed. Every other country has to stay on that list due to sanctions.

  • Order #1614571800

    Invoice #135

    Already registered and paid, waiting for service activation

  • edited November 29

    First month $3.5 * 0.8=$2.8, and $5 * 0.8=$4 recurring, is that right?

  • Order #1641963952
    Invoice #134
    Any other bonus? =)

  • I forgot to use the coupon "20OFFBLACKFRIDAY2024" when placing the order. Can you add it for me? My friend!

  • ZizzyDizzyMCZizzyDizzyMC Hosting Provider

    Hello,

    I replied to your ticket about the coupon - the easiest solution is to credit your account the difference and for me to apply it so the next due has the recurring discount. The cost of me refunding and having you re-order is like 20% of the cost of the entire order due to fees.

    Everyone else that had their payment status as "completed" has had their order activated. I'm a lone operation so support isn't S tier, unfortunately. I try my best though.

    Happy storage everyone!

    ☰ Probably the best Black Friday storage offersAMD EPYC VPSes with NVMe slices (ref) from 250GB to 4TB and 500GB–10TB SAN disk. / Big HDD storage VPSes (ref) from $2.42/month per TB. / Hybrid VPS (SSD + HDD) and storage dedis are there as well.

  • so if I understand this correctly this offer is 2.8 usd/month for 2TB of storage , or do I need to attach storage as an addon to the vps ?

    Want free vps ? https://microlxc.net

    2TB plan -> $2 / TB / Month = $4 month

    Michigan, routed through Frantech / BuyVM in NYC which is about 18-22ms. Sounds stupid, but it actually works out in my favor for hosting my own big data archives, so just using the same technique to host publicly now and passing the savings on.

    Small update, I know it's a busy day.

    A bit about the Garbage 2024 plan:

    It was spawned by a yoursunny meme. It was going to be ipv6 only about $15 / year - then I bought one in my testing phase where I ensure smooth delivery and ran a YABS and the yabs was just so good I slapped each one an ipv4 and hence garbage was born. I'm limited in supply of ipv4 so while I do a lot of low end offers - I typically will not do anything under 2TB of storage or 2GB of ram, whichever is first.

    And when I did the yabs, yeah it was great. It does come with the limitation that it's LXC containers, and the description is a machine generated mess, but accurate. It's part of the... artform.

    The garbage machine is limited in RAM which means the total amount of slots offered here is also limited - I don't overprovision much. This also means that over half of the slots need to be coreblaster 9000's in order to actually make the other half sad, rather than just 3-4 bad apples on other systems.
    I'm using Garbage 2024 as a testing system for things like automatic core limiting, network rate limiting, storage monitoring etc. Would be lovely to offer burstable network speeds on my bigger offerings without worrying about port blasters ruining the experience for everyone.

    I also wanted to address a question I had someone ask in a voice call last night:

    The hard caps on network speed on the storage offers is to prevent the ability of just a few people port blastering the rest of the infra. And ruining client experience in the process. It'd take a good number of people before it got sad at current settings.

    Garbage yabs: 1600 single thread speed at burstable full core while host node runs stress on 5 threads.

    No throwing rocks at my servers :(

    I don't have enough bandwidth commit / business to justify the extra costs of BGP direct from my DC yet, but it's a planned thing. Would be quite nice.

    At me not the servers. Though I do have some old Xeon X5 servers laying around, we can build a fort with them. I've been using those old servers for hobby parts for a while now.

    That cache really pulling it's weight. Sustained streaming writes to the disks should level off at around ~700-850MB/s aggregate per array, and there's a relatively limited amount of people on each array. The VMs are limited in overall bandwidth so streaming writes or reads should never be a limiter. Perhaps if i end up with another dedicated 10/10 line next summer I might start considering it as an issue.

    I also extended the code's usage till Tues - had a couple requests and we hadn't sold out of the 100TB worth yet. Feel free.
