Do I want to know what the new update says? I do see that one of my two 1tb storage plans (the same one as before) is still up. So there's that.
-
Yeah I was thinking of suggesting opening a ticket with them, alternatively.
-
A few months back my storage kvm changed from a different address to the range that was just sold. Now I wonder whether that was also some kind of asset sale. I don't think I have any chance of getting money back but I figured I was taking a …

How much more IP space does he have left?
-
(Quote) Do you mean the one that says May 12 on HS? I don't see any newer ones.
-
(Quote) Heh I forgot, I guess he never had ipv6. NAT would be ok except it would surely get ddos'd. Well as always, I hope Cociu gets out of this predicament in one piece.
-
(Quote) Yep mine too. I'd actually be ok with v6-only if he can get the stuff running again, but it sounds too much like circling the drain.
-
(Quote) That graph shows the 14TB drive going from $400 to the current $615. First of all that's a 54% jump but not double or triple. Second $615 for 14TB is a steep even today: that drive is $475 locally around here right now. Third I'…

(Quote) I'd be interested in seeing an ad from February at that price. It is astonishingly low. They were never anywhere that low over here, I'm pretty sure.
-
(Quote) I'm not familiar with that model but my local store has 16TB WD gold enterprise drives for 600 USD. I don't know if it's higher than before but it's definitely not double or triple. Also here is an 18TB Ultrastar Helios…

The idea of HS flipping its HDD's to Chia farming is funny as hell, so it became kind of a meme, but it doesn't seem plausible. HDD's saw a small upwards price tick but not a huge one. I still see them in stores here for a little bi…

Useless thread. All we can really do is understand that we took a gamble, and hope for the best. Best to merge this with the other HS thread if you ask me.
-
Yeah I got that same email just now. There are occasional storage offers comparable to HS on paper, but with less entertainment factor so maybe the value isn't the same, lol.
-
Hey, congrats (or something like that) to everyone involved. Anynode customers, you will be in good hands. Fran, will BuyVM anycast users have to add the Miami site once it is up? Of course that may be a welcome thing, but either way it's so…
-
At least around here there doesn't seem to have been a big jump in HDD or SSD prices. Maybe a small increase but no 2x out anything like that. Yeah I'm in same boat as Mason. I figure those of us who bought this stuff knew what we were …

Org-mode has a feature for this. I haven't used the feature but I do use org mode, so I should try the feature. https://orgmode.org/manual/Clocking-Work-Time.html#Clocking-Work-Time

I'm sure all the providers are quaking at the thought of jsg's blacklist. Lol.

Proof of recognizing traffic lights and bicycles... oh wait google did that.
-
What are exos drives? I'm used to seagate externals containing shitty SMR drives.
-
He mentioned some kind of 48 drive fiber storage back in 2017: https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/2055222/#Comment_2055222
-
(Image) Looks like hdd's are still plentiful and stores are advertising to chia farmers. Prices might be up a little but nothing drastic.
-
I gotta wonder about what kind of power conditioning he might have been using. Is the claim actually that all those hdd's were fried?
-
(Quote) Yes, see discussion and links in cest pit yesterday.
-
I think it is typical (though not good) human behaviour, to procrastinate communicating about a situation until you have something good to say, or at least something definite. So maybe we will hear "everything is fixed now" or maybe "…
-
oops wrong thread.
-
I thought the last hellacious fsck was partly because the servers were online and active at the time. For this type of service I think it is best to take them offline completely for fsck, raid rebuild, and the like. No response yet to my ticket of…
-
(Quote) I have two 1TB storage plans there. One is offline and one is working. No response to my ticket so far, but sometimes that takes a while.

One of my two VPS is down, don't know how long. There is another thread open about financial probs at HS that might explain the issue. Maybe this thread can be closed.
