    Storage servers are RAID 10, but I don't think the Specials are. I have been know to dispel misinformation at times. If this is the case I expect VirMach will provide a correction.

    Do I remember that they were at one point but it was actually making things more unstable so it changed? Seen to remember the ASRock motherboards being an issue....

    Okay let's try something new. It's going to be an evolving coupon. Existing customers only, so keep in mind it might not work on your account because WHMCS isn't great at deciding who's an existing customer.

    Every 30 minutes or so I'll check the usage and as more people use it, I'll increase the discount. It's a social experiment.

    By using it, you know someone else is going to get a better discount than you. Limit 50 quantity, caps out at 50% recurring. Starts at 0% recurring. Every use adds 1% (it's not live updated.) I'll warn you guys though, I don't think we'll actually reach 50% because I think everyone's finally sober and had more than their filling. Oh and to make it extra annoying, it rotates which of the three it works on every time I update it and final twist, it's only one time use :) Unless when I update it, WHMCS breaks it and lets you use it again.

    Coupon code: 0PERCENTOFF

    Sorry, but the coupon no longer works?
    I wanted to use it for offer #1362, but unfortunately it said that no items quality for the discount yet. :O

    There were a few servers that were RAID10. We decided against it pretty early on, and it was a good call. Almost all those servers with RAID10 had some type of catastrophic issue and probably ended up with more downtime, and eventually pulled out.

    I have a lot of personal opinions on NVMe SSDs now and probably know way too much about them. If we could go back and start over with how that technology progressed, I think we should. I don't like this NVMe timeline. The main problem with it is that for RAID10, the cards didn't really exist at the time and several years on, the cards that do exist with it that you can trust are outrageously expensive and bottleneck the NVMe SSDs pretty quickly. Then to actually make it useful with hotswapping, you get into really expensive chassis designs as well. So you're talking probably 2x the price per server to do it in the correct way, and that's today. Wasn't even possible back then. Like a $1400 controller for $800 worth of drives and another $800 for the chassis, then another $400 for the hot swappable form factor for the drives.

    We also tried out soft RAID1, I'd rate that 2/5.

    And change those colors. You'll end up blind.

  • @VirMach what is the latest update on the IPv6 situation (for AMS and NYC, if it matters)? It would be good to know if this is in the pipeline, or something to not expect anytime soon.

    Wasn't the code discount percentage supposed to go up as people used it? Unless it was reset after hitting 50 already or some timer sort of set up. Can refer to black and green screenshots up for example

    huh, I guess the first use was 15% or maybe it didn't start tracking until you woke up :)

    Big big Sorry and me culpa! Moreover, unfortunately the image sharing service reduced the size of the image. :(
    I'd rather not share any more pictures then. :)

    I wanted to purchase the AMS Offer #1362 using the 0PERCENTOFF coupon (wrote 15 %), but unfortunately it didn't validate (said that no items quality for the discount yet).
    In the next round, it gave 8 % for AMS Offer #1365, but not for TOK Offer #1366. I didn't fully understand that. But that should just be my problem.

    It rotates between which of the three plans its available on. And the system also needs to consider you as an existing customer.

    It seemed like a better deal than the one you were trying to get. That's why I offered.
