(Quote) You make a good point. I'm just making sure I'm very careful in setting expectations. This becomes necessary since we're throwing on a lot of extra hardware on these builds without really "charging" for it if we're being honest. We…

More heatsinks have been located. They were exactly where they were supposed to be, organized in a metal cabinet. I guess my brain just filtered them out like 30 times as being LGA1155 heatsinks since I see a ton of those every day.

(Quote) Yours would be different I think you technically had dedicated servers with us before, and we also talked about a specific 4x3TB setup, right? So that'd be explicitly included. I'm just talking about the sale where people make the purchase t…

(Quote) You guys have AI now. (Image)

(Quote) They'll begin to be ready this weekend, but I said that last weekend. You can take my word for it. If you'd like more information: (Spoiler)

(Quote) And we haven't even added Cogent yet! /s (Quote) This could be interesting though if the FTC lets it go through. Some updates on customer dedicated servers. Lots of things happened, some good, some bad, some changes. We have more Epyc ser…

(Quote) We can technically do that, but we don't want people to buy it because of a specific processor since there's too high of a chance (above 0%) of it potentially getting moved to some other node that's different and we would have to put a discl…

PCIe issue with 2600 resolved. It’s recognizing the RAID controller, everything looks good. SATA SSD successfully snuck in.
-
I have a question for you guys, in each price/performance category, pick which one you'd prefer: A 2600 vs 3500 B 4500 vs 3600 C 5500 vs 3700X D 3900 vs 5700X
-
(Quote) How did you even get that?
-
Great news everyone, Cogent's being connected today. 🤮
-
(Quote) Haven't processed any additional requests yet, so let's say they're every 72 hours now. I'll probably do those in a few hours.
-
(Quote) You had a dedicated server with us previously, right? I feel like you haven't been paying attention so I'll help you out, make a ticket and have me review it. You'll likely be offered a pretty good deal on something.

Update on the "sneaking in" a drive. It seems more plausible to "sneak in" an NVMe SSD but kind of risky unless I do some 3D printing of custom brackets to secure everything properly. The "sneaking in" of a SATA drive i…
-
(Quote) What you're asking for could be done for like $700 per 2 years, or $450 per year (or $350 a year plus $150 setup.) It's not perfect math, if I do that then it'd cost a lot more so keep in mind these prices I'm throwing out to people can't re…
-
(Quote) For you we can do exactly what you requested, biennial, but not my fault if it has some issues trying to handle more than 4 drives, I don't know how the SATA PCIe lanes are split across with the others, I'd have to check. That's why these we…
-
(Quote) I think $250 could potentially barely cover the shipping and datacenter handling to Amsterdam.
-
(Quote) Yeah sure, waiting for a confirmation. And @Kris let me know if you want this annual version with 2600 or 3500/5500 version monthly. You mentioned you wanted ASAP. So we have up to three of these I think, that could go to @Wonder_Woman @Kris…
-
(Quote) Don't DM me, claim it publicly, make it explicitly known you intend on taking a spot so everyone else knows since we have limited quantities of these. Of course it's not a contractual obligation to make the purchase but it's best if you're p…
-
(Quote) How far back do we have to go for that? (Quote)
-
(Quote) Short answer, you're better off just buying a plan higher up and using half the resources or whatever. I wouldn't be able to slap the "VDS" sticker on it without doubling the prices. Don't worry we're not going to run out of resour…

(Quote) 2GB RAM with a 4GB SDHC card attached to a USB dongle, with 33% AUP on the CPU. The ethernet only comes with 1 twisted pair and no shielding, connected to a Netgear EN104TP 10Mbps ethernet hub. Cable management is duct taping all the wires t…
-
(Quote) (Image) How do I do that?
-
(Quote) No sale yet. (Quote) Okay, I've decided to go with the 3500 over the 2600. We do have a few 2600's which we might deploy and then switch out and retire after they're cancelled, just to keep things neat. The 3500 technically benchmarks slig…
-
The early bird deals are really going to be early bird though, don't expect them to hang around forever or get restocked. I mean they probably could since it technically pays itself off and its portion of IPv4 and colocation, but I also want this lo…
-
(Quote) Yes, RAID10. You can't merge them unless you just want to add 8TB to the 4TB without the extra memory, CPU, and IPv4. For the same price as buying three of course. No benefits to doing it other than big disk one place if needed. If there's d…
-
(Quote) Do JBOD + Soft RAID or configure it correctly to reduce risk, or pretend it doesn't exist. I went back and checked and it looks like I'm already being careful with how it's "advertised" as in I didn't mention RAID at all in the con…
-
(Quote) Yep, we can do that. Just put in a ticket. So your equivalent based on what you said would be: (Quote) And it'd be $225 a year or whatever you mentioned instead of the $35 a month. If you want to send in two drives, it'd mean two of the SSD…
-
(Quote) I'll try to process any additional requests in daily batches. Yes, you guys can keep putting them in.

OKC Update Yesterday I got additional servers fully ready. The KVM switch is also in place. Rails also came in for some servers. The dongles also came in I think for KVM switch. Cox Communications also asked us for the 3rd time if we want single mo…

(Quote) All accurate in a 630 mile radius (Image) (Quote) Order them and I can unplug it and drive it down to Dallas for you, in a self-storage unit. (Quote) I've spoken with our "solution engineer" at Lumen. So Lumen's closest POP is…
-
(Quote) That's interesting, and confusing. So is that the same routes I described except Cogent going from Omaha --> Denver --> Dallas --> OKC ends up being better than... oh I see it now, they handed it over to Telia from Dallas. And the C…
-
(Quote) I'm sorry, what? I was not expecting that at all when opening that. Wow. How did you even... find that many cities in the world. Okay I need to figure out a feasible way to use this data.
-
(Quote) It's not for these Ryzen servers. I mean I suppose it could be... I guess I never thought of it that way. I'd just need to trick WHMCS into using it for one location as I don't really want to make an entire OKC duplicate for each plan. For a…
-
(Quote) That one makes us look good, I like it. Time to figure out what's going on with Hivelocity Chicago (and T-Mobile Fiber Denver.) Okay interesting, so Hivelocity Chicago is through Lumen, that's good. But I have to figure out how to make BGP…
-
Worst route I've seen is probably 26ms to Kansas City, and it's Cogent, and geolocations for the hops are Michigan, Nebraska, Texas, Colorado. But based on Cogent's map, it'd be slightly off but I think it's actually somehow jumping up to Nebraska, …
-
Alright let me know if you find any weird/bad routes and I'll see what can be done about it, or if you notice any surprisingly good ones let me know about them. If it's to your location you can private message it or make a ticket and provide the ID …

(Quote) Okay yours is completing now. I'm adding the new IP. UPDATE -- New IP has been added. UPDATE -- It is now the main IP. UPDATE -- Old IP has been removed. UPDATE -- Bandwidth has been doubled to 20TB (wow nice plan) UPDATE -- Memory changed …
-
(Quote) I started yours around the time when you made your comment.
-
Okay, everyone's getting moved who requested it for OKC. It's not ready yet but it's a beta and I also haven't got to tidying it up. This way you guys actually get to be there for some form of actual testing without me taking forever. And that way i…
