    Virmach had crazy enough on their ovz upgrade.

    Totally agree! My 30 OVZ node 128MB (3,8$/year) were upgraded to 384 KVM with more SSD disk space for free. Thanks VirMach!

    jagshemash.

    Hetzner no bf deal?

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

  • @Hetzner_OL please provide the deal

  • cybertechcybertech OGBenchmark King YABS 24/7/365

    PMSing real bad. :angry:

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

  • @cybertech @tgl You'll have to wait until tomorrow to see our plans. Sorry. We don't announce our sales in advance. Even for our big fans on forums. --Katie

    hmm.... :)

  • @Hetzner_OL ok, I will wait

    @willie i suggest you do the same, it seems there could be something going on tomorrow

  • cybertechcybertech OGBenchmark King YABS 24/7/365

    ok i wait!

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

  • Perhaps the most important question for @AnthonySmith and other vendors with UK BF VPS deals...

    What time do I need to wake up tomorrow to get your best deals? I'm not doing 3am like I did a couple of years back.

  • @uhu I still have not decided myself when to start, either 00:01 or tomorrow at noon (UK Times)

    I'd be willing to swap my KVM at ITLDC, which I grabbed two black fridays ago:

    1GB RAM
    10GB SSD
    Unmetered
    13€/year

    Pricing is ridiculous for a provider as reliable as them and indeed they haven't repeated this offer.

    It's going to be difficult for me to drop it, but I'd prefer something in Benelux instead of BG, so looking at LiteServer mostly, they've had great deals in the past. Don't suggest UltraVPS.eu, they are good but too strict for my needs and their new NL network has a lot of backhaul to DE which is undesirable for me. Maybe Leaseweb will have a surprise, but I find that unlikely.

    Edit: and now I understand that this topic wasn't about personal desires, but expected deals in general. lol

    Holy shit. You are alive. I thought seeing you post was just a fever dream.

  • I wasn't really expecting anything, but seeing the 3 location deal made me pull the trigger already. Now I'm reloading looking to get whatever next server I don't really need.

    It's pronounced hacker.

  • I know most of you were probably hoping for sales on our dedicated root servers, which is why I was purposely trying not to hype it up or anything. I hope you all aren't too disappointed. Our AX160-NVMe and AX160-SSD have no setup fees at the moment. We hadn't had a no-setup sale for our managed products in awhile, which is why we went for that this year. --Katie

    How is the quality of their BG network?
    I abandoned my UA kvm from the same 2017 offer 12mo ago, after seeing yo-yo performance from their unmetered pipe.

    I would have been fine with 100mbit stable.

    Sadly , I don't really have anything to trade with that can actually be transfered.

    When I said trade I didn't mean literally trade with anyone haha

    The BG network is way better than UA, very reasonable throughout, quality transit, lots of peering and very stable. I would say less than 1 hour of downtime during this year, according to my monitoring.

    In general you can't judge them by the UA network, which is surely the worse of all their locations. EU locations are hosted in better quality networks and I've tested BG, NL and LV with good results for the price (and network quality is very important for me).

    I also migrated away from the UA network thanks to the stupid censorship debacle from the government and network quality, while I've seen worse in UA, nailed it.

    For example: looking for a good storage deal. 100GB+, <$15/year, North America based. There's one going on at servaRICA ($12/year 500GB, Canada), but no IPv4, and I don't know if I want to route all my Nextcloud traffic thru Cloudflare.

    It's pronounced hacker.

    Still haven't caught any earth shattering deals yet.

    Which also means market prices are gonna go up up up

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

  • no arubacloud, very sad about that

  • cybertechcybertech OGBenchmark King YABS 24/7/365

    Had enough of BF so far.

    Just waiting for virmach San Jose for fun, and hetzner dedi if any

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

  • cybertech said: Just waiting for virmach San Jose for fun, and hetzner dedi if any

    There's been several virmach san jose (look through history on virmach.app) and no there won't be a hetzner dedi special this BF. Alternative to Virmach San Jose there are some nice @freerangecloud BF offers in Fremont CA, which is fairly close to San Jose.

    Yup not too many though. Hetzner can wait then

  • @willie and @cybertech - here is a quick bench of the Freerangecloud ssd egg in Fremont - done before enabling aes (and possibly some other flags): https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/14980364

    Have been seeing consistently about 500 MB/s sequential write speed on the ssd

    Will be a couple days before I can get back to it to kick the tires again with more flags enabled but so far so good.
