Considering, but wanted to know if there was an option to expand storage ie say I bought salamander hybrid and needed another tb or 2 of storage?
All our storage is expandable almost limit
as all the storage is SAN as long as we have enough storage in our datacenter you can get it

Hi, a couple of questions from me:
About the 'legal torrent node' thing, AFAIR you run both your compute and storage on clusters. Unless this is part of your config you are unable to share publicly due to reasons, Is this legal torrent node only about compute, or are these completely separated, both compute- and storage-wise?
Asking because I'm wondering whether ordering another service while checking this box* would result in slightly better redundancy due to having storage and/or compute on separate clusters. For the record, I do not really plan on torrenting, so if not, I guess there would be no point in taking the performance hit for nothing
*Optional box to be checked while ordering specific servers:
Torrent Usage
I will use this VPS to torrent so please place me in legal torrent node (Torrent node will have less performance than non torrent node) (If your torrent generate abuse it is not allowed )
I guess it's already too late for this year's BF, so perhaps next year, please consider preparing a Polar Bear-like service with less RAM and CPU that would result in cheaper storage (per TB) than Polar Bear and Killer Whale - judging from Opossum 1/2 and Polar Bear specs/pricing, maybe something like 1C1G2T for 36 dollars annually would be feasible? Alternatively/additionally, 2TB+ IPv6-only storage in exchange for a few dollars less per year would be nice too
in our infra we have compute pools and storage SAN they are not tight to each other
So you can have 2 VPS on in same compute pool and they user 2 different storage nodes on the SAN
you can have 2 VPS on different compute pools and they use the same storage node on the SAN
actually even 1 VM can have 2 disks each of them in different storage node if we want !
usually when a user order a second or third vps we try to put them on different compute pool and different storage node than their first order but since now it is Black Friday just add it to the comment in your order to make sure no one will just accept your order in same pool

Nice, Killer Whale still seems like the most enticing offer, and it has been around for a while. If I get it on monthly, can I later switch it to annual?
From a cost-centric perspective, it really seems wasteful to be paying for the IPV4
Especially when all the IPV4 is good for is creating SSH spam in the logs.

@samm said: @servarica_hani what happens if allocated 4tb bandwidth is used up? vps suspends for the rest month?
At least for my polar bear service from last year, there's the option to switch to unlimited @ 100mbit. I think it should flip over to a 10mbit cap automatically when you hit the cap, but I don't honestly remember if I've ever hit the cap on mine.
@tarasis said: @servarica_hani what does the offer end exactly? considering two options but I also need to go to sleep.
Is it feasible to switch plans if need be with BF pricing? (I accept likely not)
usually while quantity last
We usually dont set exact time when to finish the offer but it is unpredictable even for us
Sometimes we out of stock some bigger plans to keep space for smaller ones , sometimes we do the opposite and so on
If the BF is still in stock you can always upgrade to it otherwise you cant
@servarica_hani said: 5. We will do random draw to decide who will win @servarica_hani said: 7. Rule #5 does not apply if you paid using crypto currencies as it is hard to do refund for them
@servarica_hani you mean that should someone pay with crypto, then there will be no random draw?
Please pick me as a winner then, since I'm seemingly the first to notice this

All the best
Nice give away
Nice to see more monthly payment options
wew, 2.5$/m 29$/y really good deal for next cloud instance or cloud backup. not bad for 100mbit unmetered .
order #7553479309
Nice for a slightly offsite backup heh (i'm on fiber in montreal area)
10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 9015ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 2.270/2.544/2.913/0.182 ms
Looking forward to getting a new server from them soon

Great offers

You have a whale of an offer. Killer, even.
It's also good for network connectivity.
Nice offers.
I'm fine with v6-only. Everything I want to back up has v6, so I don't need v4.
thank you

It would be good if switched to 10mb, at least I can access my server rather than suspended for whole month. thanks
you will be switched to 10mbps unlimited till the end of the month cycle and then you will reset to 1gbps
no extra charges
