VM Specialist Christmas/New Year Offers!
Merry Christmas everyone!
We'll be doing a few offers over the next couple of weeks so keep an eye on this thread as various offers are posted! The range is available here and will be added to as we add more stock/offers.
Reasons to choose us:
- Custom ISO support
- Nested virtualisation enabled (VM-x/AMD-V)
- 24/7 support
- best effort DDoS protection
- /64 IPv6 per VM on all locations
- noVNC access
- Snapshots/backups on all NVMe plans (any existing clients who don't see this option please get in touch)
- Free (or reduced) DirectAdmin available on certain plans
First up, let's kick things off with some storage. These are KVM VMs in Helsinki, on Hetzner network.
- 1 core
- 1gb ECC RAM
- 1tb HDD
- 5tb transfer @ 1gbps
- 1 x IPv4, /64 IPv6
- £37.50/year - Order
And slightly bigger
- 2 core
- 2gb ECC RAM
- 2tb HDD
- 10tb transfer @ 1gbps
- 1 x IPv4, /64 IPv6
- £55/year - Order
Also, if anyone remembers back to BF @Nekki generated a coupon code. If you can remember the code (or find it), it's still valid for 50% off our 4tb storage VM (4 core/4gb RAM/4tb HDD). I've not linked this directly/put pricing as it's technically over the normal LET offer limit.
TL;DR terms
- No torrenting/anything likely to be classed as copyright infringement.
- No hardware intensive workloads (crypto, etc). If you're encoding please contact us and we'll look at whether it will have a negative effect on other users.
- No SPAM
All prices exclude VAT where applicable.
Orders are manually approved/checked/etc.
Payment method(s): card via Stripe. Orders not paid within a reasonable timeframe will be removed.
Thanks for reading.

Moaaaaaaarrrrr hybrids @Mr_Tom
The Code for 4tb isn't working!
Don't worry - I was working on trying to offer a hybrid deal for Christmas/New Year - but no exact ETA on when
DEALZ!
+10 for Mr_Tom , fast support if needed and my storage plan never failed me.
highly recommend.
👀
It is.
Yup forgot to add the f
So you F-offed yourself. 😄
You don't want to forget the F!
Is uck an actual word?
I think it was the whole word missed from the code, but "missing the F" is more polite
The 4tb storage is the hybrid one?
No this one is just HDD.
There's 2 uses left on the 4tb HDD plan if anyone is interested.
Edit: And plenty of the 1tb/2tb plans too
Though I am still counting how many machines I got on BF, I couldn't resist on another 4TB storage:
Yabs for my first VPS from Mr Tom: (4TB storage plan, it shows 18.2 because I made a second partition during installation):
I am ashamed to say this, but I still haven't tried any of your services
I look forward to fixing that mistake
Added a larger spec machine -
TL;DR terms

Other than hybrids which I know were popular, if anyone has any ideas on what they'd like to see I'm open to discussion.
Cheers!
Can we get a YABS for this bad boy please?
*cue elevator music*
Freshly baked YABS:
I never thought a Yabs could make me so hard 😂 lol
Added same specs as above (4 core/8gb/200gb NVMe) but in Los Angeles. Same specs/price/etc as Frankfurt but LA location - Order Link if anyone interested
UK based storage might be tempting. Though Helsinki might be tempting enough.
But before I sign up for anything else I should probably finish rearranging things (making use of new services, maybe dropping old) after signing up for stuff in October & November!
If I shovel backups on there, bits of them will occasionally be verified (up to a few hundred Gb read & checksummed). While not terribly intensive (sha512 does a lot less work per byte than transcoding video) this could still look like an encoding workload. I'm happy to use tricks like cpulimit, reducing the impact at any given time but stretching the process over a longer period (these sanity checks are not time sensitive). Or cgroups similarly if IOPs impact is more of an issue than CPU, which it could be on HDD when checking many small files (or cgroups for both, but for just limiting CPU use, and maybe IO throughput as an indirect effect of that, cpulimit is less faf).
We're pretty "fair" to be honest, and we obviously can't see what your workload is on the VM anyway. Spikes are expected with normal usage anyway - it's more that if people are using 100% for hours that will likely affect other users on the same node.
How much storage?
Merry Xmas @Mr_Tom! Looking forward to those hybrid plans!
Also interested here in hybrid plans @Mr_Tom :-)
last I heard the hardware was not yet available... @Mr_Tom can confirm...
Like so many others I missed the hybrids BF2021
If someone wants to let the @Mr_Tom hybrids go - please let me know. I am ready to grab on to those.
Can't believe it. What a tempting price! Thank you, Mr_Tom.
Just curious to know if soft RAID is enabled?
On which offer are you wanting to know? Generally storage is RAID6 but NVMe plans are either RAID1/RAID10.
