New! Dual E5-2683 Shared Bare Metal Server Offer -- Texas!!

Not_OlesNot_Oles Hosting ProviderContent Writer

Hello!

Want to share this fine server with me?

It has both RAID 10 SSD drives and an extra NVMe drive. There is an IPv4/28 and an IPv6/128 with an IPv6/48 routed to the /128.

Hopefully you know lots more than I do! And you are willing to teach me something.

Hopefully you also want to share the $99.95 monthly cost!

Not sure how long I want to keep this server. It is paid up to November 24.

Thanks!

Tom

    24th Nov 2025 or Nov'24? :lol:

    Never make the same mistake twice. There are so many new ones to make.
    It’s OK if you disagree with me. I can’t force you to be right.

  • A lot of swap :-)

    @risturiz Yeah, I also noticed what seemed like a lot of swap. Additionally, if I understand right, the gentleman who kindly did the install for me set up the RAID 10 from within the baseboard controller in a way somehow analogous to a hardware RAID controller. I want to learn more about how the RAID works on this particular setup. Here is the full lsblk output:
