30000 x 3 = 90000 emails * 0.0002 = $18/mo with Mandrill (worst case, not including free 12000 sends per mo). Setting your own server and making sure emails are constantly getting into user's inboxes takes a lot of effort, I am not sure if it makes sense to save a few bucks a month and spend...

Wouldn't SSL prevent this?

Nodewatch was not designed to send alerts when node goes down (we do not promise outage alerts anywhere on vpsantiabuse.com). It only monitors for abuse.

CDN only adds an additional point of possible failure = it decreases overall availability of a website. Want to speed up graphics/css/js? Set up proper caching headers. Caching will give better results than any CDN (cached stuff "loads" instantly). CDN is great when you want to distribute...

Looking at your bandwidth graph - aren't you being DoS'ed?

Karma will probably be the most effective, and more often than not it is a good addition for smaller forums. However as communities grow Karma eventually starts driving new members away (my karma is bigger than yours sort of thing).

@EnveraHost They were Samsung 840 Pros - please see my post above. Plus we had a few Intel s3500's fail.

@Francisco Wait, you cannot be serious. So what happens if I order a VPS somewhere and set a "; rm -rf /" as a password?

All our failed drives went out suddenly without going through even 10% of the designed TBW. All failures resulted in drives being completely bricked, without any chance to get the data off.

We have a lot of Intel s3500/s3700 drives and we have quite a number of M500/M550/840 Evo/840 Pros in the older machines. I would just say that the failure rate we see is the worst on the 840 Pros.

To reduce I/O load you could also vzdump onto a separate drive, just mount it under /vz/dump. This drive does not even have to be RAID storage, just a single drive. Also rsync allows you to throttle transfers which could also be used to reduce I/O load on disks.

Seagate drives do not survive for too long under load/vibration, even their enterprise drives are meh. With WD, you have to be careful as each model is designed to deal with specific type of vibration (4 / 8 / 12 drives in same chassis). For server type load, hitachi drives work best for the price.

@drmike I live in Canada and use Wind daily here but I visit states quite often. Have one of their older $29/mo plans + this magical addon, total is $44/mo. In the last few months have been using this setup in California and Texas on both carriers (Tmobile and AT&T) with great success, works...

I always wondered what is the point of RTO from customer's perspective, especially when it comes to old hardware like that? To me it looks like a good way for a provider to get rid of the old junk and save on recycling costs. The biggest issue with RTO is, once your lease is over and the...

You could bring it down to ~ $50 by jumping through a few hoops: Buy windmobile.ca - $35/mo unlimited plan Then activate $15/mo unlimited U.S. roaming plan (it comes with unlimited text, talk and 5 GB of data that they call "unlimited" and it can be tethered - works anywhere in the U.S.) For...

Thanks I tried my best :) Actually I did it on purpose considering how good Google's OCR is.

So what exactly is wrong with the latest working truecrypt 7.1a, does it really need any further rebr... umm, development?

Looking at this... https://ciphershed.org/news/ and https://wiki.ciphershed.org/PMC Reminds me hypervm... And yes, the way they advertize "rebranding" is another bad sign. I want to be wrong though.

From time to time google resolvers become quite slow... It could be throttling though :)
