Any interest in 525GB KVM Storage?

[concerto49]

Anyone interest in the below? Anything you'd like changed / modified? It'd be a special of course.

 

Specs will be:

 

KVM

1 vCPU shared (Xeon E3 V3)

512MB RAM

525GB RAID50 storage (Enterprise WD HDD + LSI RAID card + BBU)

2100GB bandwidth (shared Gigabit)

$7/month

 

Location: Dallas, Texas

Will this have any limits on its use like those with backupsy?

 

[DearLeaderJohn]

@Pmadd, No additional restrictions will be put in place for these plans. There are no caveats as long as your usage falls in-line with our existing ToS. We have the exact same policy on our other storage plans which are working out great for our other customers.

What's with the disk being 525? Seems like a random number.

 

[DearLeaderJohn]

@SkylarM, It just so happens that 525GB divides nicely with the available space of our server setup.

Which location? Could you add a lower plan: 262GB?

Dallas, Texas. Sure, $4.75/month.

So far it's an expression of interest. We ordered 30+ E3s and will be using them for various purposes. They are currently being built and shipped. Once they arrived, we'll put it up. Hopefully no delays. Looks like some interest.

We run new E3s etc here, so less CPU limited - a lot more room for everyone, hence not as many restrictions.

Would be interested in one with an unmetered (maybe capped & downgraded with a fair use policy) port. Don't want to pay for overages on backup.

This should be good. I'm interested with this one if ever this plan pushes through.

Definitely will. I know we asked about Windows KVM earlier -- it will launch along with this. We've delayed doing that just to build better infrastructure first. Linux KVM will also be available at the same time.

Cool! I currently have the 200gb Storage VPS with you, so I'll upgrade to this one as soon as it's released

I'm extremely interested. This would be a great way to store some automated nightly backups.

Thanks. Waiting a bit longer to see what is happening with OVH before launching this.

Oh boy, this looks yummy.

OVH!

OVH!

Well if I cut the raid card + bbu and whatever "enterprise" features I might actually get closer to OVH pricing... but that's like the RAM price... meh.

 

[NodeBytes]

I'll take one.

Edit: I meant for the original pricing, not OVH like pricing.
