I have one server there since jan 2016
its a Supermicro 5150 8GB 2x2TB Rent Only for 20$/month
for me much HDD space is important

Performance is not very good because of old hardware (e.g.DDR2 RAM) but price-performance ratio is very good imo

network speed is 1Gbit... getting about 50-70MB/s when transferring files.

at the moment im not that happy with the server:
about 1 month ago a HDD failed... they replaced it very fast, good support

i had to setup the whole server new
about 5 days ago the other HDD failed and had to be replaced too
again i had to setup the whole server new

now the part where im starting to get really unhappy:
i asked 4 days ago if i can have 1 more IP as compensation because then i can install VMware ESXI and make a backup of the VM to an other server and if the HDD fails its no problem to loose all data but saves me much time... just recover the VM and dont have to install the whole server new.

thats the answer i got 4 days ago:

Hello,

The Billing Department and your account manager return the next business day (M-F 8AM-5PM EST).

I'll move this ticket to the Sales Department and mark its status as Open so your account manager is aware.
We will work to provide you resolution for your issue and update you as soon as possible.

today im still waiting for the sales team to answer that simple question

btw they want 3$ for an IP... thats too much imo

i think if i dont get the IP for free i have to end the service and get an new server somewhere else

    If you can't afford it, then don't ask for it. This is the first time I've seen someone being so thick-skinned and having no shame for asking another IP for "compensation".

    @dacentec you here?

    This is the kind of customer a provider wouldn't want.

    That being said, if I'm the provider you would have ended up on FraudRecord for being annoying lol.

  • Oh beg somewhere else. $3 for an IP is more than acceptable. Hard drives fail, and you're hosting your data on a budget host. You're already getting one hell of a deal.

    I don't think you're really warning anyone here about Dacentec, you're just hoping they read this so you get your free IP. I hope they remove your service.

    oh i think you got me wrong... i know its a budget host, my data is not important its no problem to loose it... sure Hard drives can fail, problem is i dont want to setup the server again and again...

    this should not be a thread to make dacentec bad... i think they are very good with the price-performance ratio as i said in my first post

    im only a bit pissed that sales team dont answer me that simple question... sure i have to pay more when i get an other server somewhere else, but there i get better performance and more IPs (e.g. soyoustart with 16 IPs for free)

    normal price for an IP is 1€ or maybe 1.5 $ but not 3

    Why should they make it easier for you to move away?

    @t0mmy You're a cunt mate, pure and simple. You've just come here to try and bully Dacentec. I hope they cancel your server, then mail you a box of faeces created after a Taco Bell binge.

    You're bullying them so you get your free IP.

    Anyway, why u no use ipv6? real men use ipv6.

  • KuJoeKuJoe Member, Host Rep

    I'm a bit confused, compensation for what? A failed hard drive? Are you saying they could keep their hard drive in exchange for an IP address? That doesn't make any sense. If your hard drive fails they replace it for free, that's the compensation. Additionally $23/month for a dedicated server with 2x2TB hard drives, 10TB of bandwidth on a 1Gbps port, 8GB of RAM, and Xeon CPUs is an amazing deal. Heck, I pay almost 4 times that for VPSs with a fraction of those resources.

    No free ip? Better leave! It's not like IPv4 adresses are on the verge of decline and their value has gone up or anything like that^^ But hey it's you who gets to decide what compensation to get anyway isn't it? Leaving the provider would be the best choice to spare them the trouble of dealing any further with you.

    That's exactly what you'd do, because passive-aggressive it's the best way to be a prick whilst making it look like you're not a prick!

    And seriously Captain Pissflaps, you can't respond to me calling you a cunt by....calling me a cunt - that's lazy and lacks any kind of finesse, you need to come up with something of your own and not just copy, you lackadaisical fart-gobbler.

    They've been out of IP space for quite a while. At this point they need to make it last since they only have/had 30k~40k for their whole datacenter.

    Remember they were also careless and did a bunch of $10/year VPS which burned up a bunch more.
