VPSDime: OpenVZ storage plans
Just got this message
Hello,
We are sending out this email today to let all of our clients know about our new product line: OpenVZ based Storage VPS.
Plans range from 100GB all the way to 1000GB of disk space on brand new hardware that we've had built specifically for this product line.
Listed below is an example plan and the specifications for the servers we've deployed:
500GB Disk Space
4 vCPU
2GB Memory
512MB vSwap
4TB Traffic @ 1Gbps Uplink
1 IPv4
Optional IPv6
$7/month
Node Specifications: Dual Hex Core X5650 with 128GB of RAM and 14 x 4TB Enterprise HDD in RAID50 connected with 2 x 1Gbps Uplinks
OpenVZ storage plans are available immediately in Los Angeles and Dallas with Miami to follow within 3 months depending on demand.
We utilize QuadraNet's highly peered, awesome network in both locations.
Private torrenting is allowed on the OpenVZ storage plans, usage of public trackers is strictly prohibited. The OpenVZ storage plans are designed with storage & backups in mind, this means we do not take regular backups of any OpenVZ storage services as we do with other services - Combining a standard plan with a storage plan is recommended.
Please take a moment to read the differences between public torrent trackers and private torrent trackers: http://lifehacker.com/5897095/whats-a-private-bittorrent-tracker-and-why-should-i-use-one
To order any of the OpenVZ Storage plans click through to the following link: https://vpsdime.com/cart.php?gid=2
Please note that we are not able to migrate your current VPS to the storage nodes. You need to order new service.
We're also offering 2 months free for any client (with any service) who switches to annual billing.
We appreciate your business deeply and are working hard to improve our services every single day. Please let us know if you have any suggestions and we'll make them happen!
Regards,
VPSDime
Using my mobile atm, so sorry for this shitty formation. Will fix it l8
Comments
Ergh, my phone was too slow to post it. Great offer for this prices ;D
Ughhhh, should really add some paragraphs to that!
Ya, will do that as soon as I get to my pc at home. If any admin want to fix it first:p @Nekki @mpkossen
they already have backupsy no?
what's the point of having VPSDime selling this as well?
torrents? They are not allowed on Backupsy.
As far as I know, you arent allowed to use backupsy as normal vps. But with vpsdime you can. Futermore you have more ram, but you have to forgo KVM
i see...by the way what do they mean by you can't use public tracker? does it mean we can't even download torrents we get in public?
@serverian can we expect UK/NL/any EU location soon?
@zhuanyi it probably means they don't want to receive too many abuse reports for your IP
I think maybe this product line could be used as regular VPS, backupsy don't.
Now I wish I could move from Oopsy to VPSDime...
if they have less RAM with lower price, i'll be more happy :P like 100G disk/256M ram with $20/y
if use for private torrenting, no need 1G ram
We'll see the demand and act by it
Yes i was also wondering if they can launch EU location it will definitely be a + .Anyway still its a good start by @serverian.
Very cool offer at a low price - good luck!
I got one the other day. @serverian is an evil genius. He keeps finding ways to take my money.
pls eu.
Might even buy one from US, which I usually don't do.
Can this be used to host a website?
Can this be used to host a website?
Of course.
No public torrents at all? Even it's nothing related to movies musics dramas etc?
So how's the I/O on these storage nodes?
Then show your support and buy in the US and we'll expand to the EU. Then you can migrate
We do not suggest using this product line for production. It's designed for storage and backups. We do not restrict you, of course. We do not take backups of any kind of these products. If you need space for your website, you can simply purchase our 6GB plan and mount this storage VPS as NFS or FUSE and use its space.
No, sorry. We drop the public trackers' IPs on the network.
Will do. Is it possible to get more SSD for the normal 6gb boxes?
$2 per additional 10GB
Is bandwidth unmetered between vpsdime servers? cause if I do NFS or FUSE the bandwidth is going to be doubled
Unfortunately, not. They are not in the same datacenters.
Wanted to say I signed up last night and so far quite pleased
I'm incredibly impressed with the performance of these servers (assuming empty host). Making me want to try out some other VPS Dime products.
@serverian: Is there a chance for KVM/XEN with VPS Dime?
@serverian
Look at:
We are planning SSD KVM in Orlando soon. Then possibly in Los Angeles.
2 vCPU (E5 2660v2 Cores)
2GB Memory
30GB Pure SSD
2TB Traffic @ 1Gbps
for $7/month
