GVH is cheaper FYI.

GVH is cheaper FYI.

Ha good joke!

Anyways getting back on topic, I think they are in a REAL need of money. If you look on the order form they are offering 100tb@10Gbit for $350/m extra. That is soooooooo cheap. 

 

[tuguhost]

im not sure will i use them again or not 

maybe next times when i need backup server

If you value your equipment then stay well clear.

Would you rather pay $34.95 monthly for 99%* pure COGENT?

FIXED THAT FOR YOU!

*the other 1% is Visperad Networks...Visperad peers mainly with VolumeDrive and ColoCrossing but it also peers with NRP Network (NRP exists to peer with Iran... http://bgp.he.net/AS58262#_peers)

 

[drmike]

GVH is cheaper?   Where's their colo offer posted?  Didn't post it here, now did they, meh!?!?!

As for coloing with vD on a single homed Cogent uplink, meh.   I'd rather have Verizon FIOS, Google Fiber or perhaps an EVDO connection instead. 

Nothing like having your gear kidnapped and lost in another dark of night escape/kidnapping...  The vD way.

 

[drmike]

and... I am not missing the humor of lumping GVH / CC in here....

In Biloh's wet dream he swallows vD.

@drmike here you go:

So... from WHT:

1U Premium Colocation
1U Space
1 Amp
120 Volts
10,000GB Bandwidth
1Gbit Port
5 IPv4 Addresses
... Only $29.95/month!


2U Premium Colocation
2U Space
2 Amp
120 Volts
20,000GB Bandwidth
1Gbit Port
29 IPv4 Addresses
... Only $52.95/month!

-----------------

Considering the price of the crazy GVH dedicated server pass-throughs --- more economical to stick to dedis the first month.

Those prices aren't bad, but I don't think they'll be many takers at least right now.   

I am waiting for those crazy $19.95 for 1U prices...

 

[Nett]

I'm waiting for $7/month colocation tomorrow (On GVH's LET signature: NEXT LET GVH OFFER: Feb 11th, 2014. STAY TUNED!!! YOUR MIND WILL BE BLOWN.)

I'm expecting:

0.5U Space

0.51 Amp

120 Volts

5TB Bandwidth

1Gbit Port

5 IPv4 Addresses

... Only $7.00/month!

 

[jenok]

lol $7/month colocation

 

[BrianHarrison]

lol $7/month colocation

Haha, yeah, wouldn't even cover the cost of electricity.

 

[Nett]

Hopefully Jon can figure out a way to "oversell" rack space.

 

[GVH-Jon]

We can do much better. And on a network that's more Level 3 based too.


Stay tuned everyone.

Stay tuned everyone.

Your reputation is not as poor as VolumeDrive but not better too. I stay away and not stay tuned on any of your offers.

 

[Aldryic C'boas]

No actual carriers mentioned, carrier-neutral facility... that pretty much screams "we had to beg for Cogent" to me >_>

 

[MartinD]

This was a Volumedrive related thread, not GVH or cc*

 

[kaniini]

Yeah, that's what happened to a certain security-related blog...

 

[bauhaus]

Definitely not.
