(Quote) Now that's tasty....

(Quote) Considering his site is down (at least currently) and they've only been around since February 2020 but have many locations. I'm gonna wait and see how it goes in a year then maybe consider them.

Example specs are too beefy. People love dedicated cores and resources though. Additionally your right no one wants to manage bare metal and monitor raid for failure or beg a provider to upgrade the hardware. Why not just choop that up? 1 dedicated…

We can sit here and discuss the scientific faults or shortfalls of the setup all day long. Frankly this is also possible in even the best of scientific research. But this looks like a fun technical test and something uniquely possible to a forum lik…

(Quote) Basics: * Use random password generator for sign up and save that somewhere * Sign into portals/panel(s) and change the passwords. * Use custom iso if possible to upload the distro of choice or mount the provided distro as CD then use vnc a…

(Quote) The most important part of this is trusting your provider. There are many low cost solutions which I pass on. (Quote) Back when I co-located (wasn't cost effective ultimately for my needs) I had the idrac port physically disconnected f…

(Quote) That's actually a great option. The reality is they are weak but they are dedicated and imo a bit more secure than a VPS if you can encrypt the data. With that said I would rather use a single board quad core atom.
-
(Quote) Nice! How's performance and reliability been with minio? Do you have all the same size drives or mix and match?
-
(Quote) Interesting. Which data Center location were you using? Also how's minio been treating you? Did you use a cluster in one location or cluster over multiple locations? Or single system stored locally? I have some atom nucs and tempted to…
-
(Quote) Thanks! I have a single board atom I kinda want to do it with but now running into whether it's cost effective vs a decent deal on a VPS. Feeling like a no. But it's a fun thought
-
(Quote) Neat! Any others people know about?
-
This is why dedicated servers and colocation are the only sure ways to retain privacy. Affordable options (lowend) are atom dedicated servers (preferably with raid 1) and pi colocation.

(Quote) A storage KVM solution that solution is backed up via crashplan. I know crashplan isn't the best but it's cheap above 2tb.
-
(Quote) Again though you have to remember the 90 day billing cycle on new data which B2 doesn't have. I believe they bill for day on the day. https://wasabi.com/cloud-storage-pricing/pricing-faqs/#:~:text=With%20Wasabi%20minimum%20storage%20re…

These feel like data mining tactics to me personally. $15 for lifetime usage seems unsustainable otherwise.
-
It's a good tactic to get people to try your network. After trying out a budget VPS with another provider here I saw their network and location were superior to my other low end VPS and moved two services to them. Paying less getting more.
-
(Quote) Note that wasabi has a 90 day retention policy on data. So any data written to them will have a minimum charge of 90 days even if it's deleted. After 90 days any data removed won't be charged. This isn't a big deal for backup …

(Quote) Perhaps you don't wish to host in DE? (contabo offers Saint Louis) or perhaps you don't want to deal with aging hardware which comes with a dedicated server. Virtual Dedicated VPS seems like a good compromise if you want a dedicate…
-
(Quote) Very nice! Thanks for the transparency. I gotta say I'm very impressed thus far with the quality of the network and performance.
-
(Quote) Neat thanks for the thorough and clear response! Does this mean though that current KVM US ssd customers are sharing resources on the same server as VZ7 users?
-
(Quote) > (Quote) Well it's clear the VZ7 Nat and regular offers are cheaper and more plentiful than the KVM offers. Just trying to figure out if they are sharing the same physical bare metal server as ssd KVM and/or the cached KVM VPS'…
-
Are the KVM services on the same hardware as all these openvz offers?
-
Personally I can't think of anything I would want hosted there that I wouldn't just pay something really little for instead and have hosted properly
-
Remember though if you use them as your registrar they have to be your DNS meaning you can't set nameservers. Frankly not a big deal but worth remembering.
-
(Quote) Yea I looked into that with packet actually as a cheap blockish storage. Works pretty well there although it was scary seeing the usage before it was credited back. Saw cloudflare option is useful for hosting purposes but I don't like …
-
At that price you're kinda in a tough spot. There are many providers giving 1tb at around $5-6 a month without managing a server. So then if you in need of a server it might be because you want a centralized data solution. At that point it migh…
-
(Quote) Backblaze's bandwidth policy annoys me. They have TONS of extra bandwidth yet enforce strict outbound pricing on their B2 service. But they play themselves off as being consumer friendly.
-
(Quote) No matter what a provider says, down time is always a good reason to open a ticket (after reading announcements).
-
(Quote) Eh it doesn't hurt though. For example changing SSH default port should be one of the first things that's done. Of course they can do a full port scan but it'll knock off a number of bots. Additionally setting up a solution to…
-
This is exactly why one should always do fresh installs via Install Media and don't use pre-built setups (unless it's for quick testing). Additionally never keep the passwords the same as what's provided during sign up nor use the sam…

What data Center is the Phoenix KVM hosted in?
-
(Quote) You aren't drinking the domain registrar and DNS coolaid ;)
-
(Quote) It's been a number of years since I've used a registrars name servers but it depends on who your using. Namesilo and porkbun for example back when I checked didn't have an anycast dns and were pretty slow, not to mention pron…
-
Additionally if you dns is hosted with your registrar or web host and you change providers you have to change dns host which comes with potential downtime and also annoyance in putting all the information back in. Independent DNS provider gives you…
-
(Quote) Run an uptime monitor on their DNS probably won't be great or multi noded even.
-
(Quote) Was going to say Vultr would be probably the best choice in terms of big VPS providers with free DNS offerings. I believe theirs is also globally distributed. With that said it's great hetzner is offering free dns. Several of the popula…

(Quote) I know it sounds like I am but I've had the same experience with him which is why this wasn't written off in my mind. (Quote) Oh alright I'll give it a shot. ;) it's indeed too good to pass up
-
(Quote) It's the unlimited part that gets me. Even our good friend Fran had to pull it back after the spammers got to it with literally thousands of advert sites. 100 imo is the right amount. Excessive but not enough to cause havoc.
-
(Quote) I'm skeptical but I also know your a stand up guy so interested. What's the likelihood of this "lifetime" being at least 2 years?
-
(Quote) Indeed fixed
-
I'm confused. Are you offering unlimited domain hosting and 2gb storage for a one time payment of 10 euros?
-
(Quote) I really like the snippits and auto complete features in termus but the monthly subscription is a bit silly

(Quote) Bitvise is personally my favorite windows ssh client. Makes it very simple IMO
