This auction is now closed. Thanks to everyone who sent in a bid. Due to the circumstances of what's happened I'm going to wait until everyone who was already involved/sent in a bid can respond to my PM. If no response is received in a day then I'll assume the bid has been retracted.

Update: It seems there are four WD hard drives in it instead of two I originally though.  (4x 3.5" Hard drives) Screenshot attached:

Sorry about that.  A mass PM was sent out to all individuals involved in this thread.   The PM was:

I've allowed this due to apparently disliking the more detail I've presented (when he requested it and bid before asking).  If the next highest bidder does not wish to proceed then please send me a PM and this can be handled. I will admit this has become a clusterfuck now.   Current highest...

Update: There has been an update clarifying the model of the hard drives (after multiple individuals contacting me about them).  I've updated the second post (that was initially reserved) for these edits.  Please review them.  I'll update this once more if more information becomes available.  If...

1 hour and 24 minutes left.  FrapHost just asked about the specific details behind the possibly failing hard drive.  

Howdy! First of all, thanks to everyone who have already placed a bid!   This is a reminder/notification that the auction will end in a little over 6 hours and 15 minutes from now.  

Hm.  Well that's not very nice then.  That definitely isn't good.   I wish the best for ya. 

No way!  Holy cow!  It'd be fantastic if we all can pay our bills and manage each system simply from using SSH and VIM!  It'd also be awesome if we could get shared hosting people who where totally 1337 with CLI so we can ditch this entire "design" thing we have to deal with.  GUIs?  Pffff...

Can you clarify this?  DId someone DDoS your Prometeus VPS?

Well, it depends on what plan you have. But like what concerto49 said, just as a rule of thumb you can assume 1.00 load to be equivalent to 1 CPU usage.  If you're pulling a load of 1 on a 256mb VPS for 24 hours straight then that's a problem.   Of course this is all at the discretion of your...

This may be a really weird suggestion. But get a blow up doll. To strangle. Am I an expert on this? No. But it'd be a great reason to have a blow up doll in the office.

Howdy! It seems like this thread was created by ShardHost himself on vpsBoard as well located here: http://vpsboard.com/topic/2582-shardhost-info-urgent-client-action/ I'm going to close this thread so we can continue discussions in the original thread. Thanks!

Hm... So... 4 comments from 3 individuals == large hate on Russia when the topic of hosting in Russia is mentioned?  Or am I missing something here?

I don't understand this accusation. Where do you see hate on Russia? In response to your question, look at Russia's upper class.  Some are entrepreneurs who utilized the opportunity the fall of the USSR to gain personal wealth (most were previous mobsters).  US cold-war era propaganda also...

FAQ   Hard Drive Models: Howdy there.  It seems there are many people who are asking me about the specific information in regards to the hard drives (about 1.5 hours before the auction is done).     There are two WD1002FBYS, and two (if I recall) 2.5" hard drives.  I'm currently looking into...

Howdy folks! So I finished the RTO period with Dacentec and have been paying for the colocation fees for a while now. Unfortunately I'm currently done with the use of this server (it's done all it need to do). I'm selling the hardware! Here's the specs: Dell Server (Don't have the serial...

Yep VPN ;) I'm in Asia and I"m VPNing in!

I love this. I can't tell you how much I hate my local mirror. Took me an hour to update a desktop version! (My internet is the local education network that peers directly with all the biggest peers here in Asia. The update size was about 200MB.)

Well waiting for the new results then!  I've heard great things about Terafire anyways.
