private "linux.iso" friendly?

It is hosted at Hetzner and they are strict in regards to DMCA notices. I will have to handle anything that gets forwarded to me. So there are probrably better providers for that.

If I run qBittorrent over VPN, there would not be any DMCA notice.
Then the question is whether the drives would go brr upon the workload.

Sure, you could do that. Just stating that if I do get a notice I'll need to handle it, even though I do not agree. The drives should not be an issue. The server is pushed pretty much right now, a lot of people are filling up their storage. The bottleneck is the 1gbps connection, but it should be all good once people aren't pushing terabytes onto the server.

I only believe it's an issue with public trackers. But don't hold me up on that.

The 40% coupon will be active for 1 hour more, as it ends at sunday midnight CET. The 20% coupon will remain active as long as stock lasts, which suitably is around 20% of server resources.

Just as a FYI for new orders and those who have ordered. The demand for this has been quite overwhelming and we're currently seeing many people filling up their servers. Network performance might be suboptimal for a little while until people have filled their servers.

Unfortunately not. I didn't expect the demand to be this big. Any happy hour deals would just make this server one big expense for me.

It's fighting for its life. Potential 90TB of VPS fighting to be filled. Drive performance is showing its worth though, barely affected even though its consistently reading/writing 120MB/s at the moment.

Seems like that was the last order with 40% off. Unfortunately I cannot supply any additional besides bandwidth, but that has been tripled.

Coupon has now been disabled, 20% remains active on all billing cycles until stock runs out.

@FrankZ could you perhaps modify my original post to put a line through the text referring to the 40% coupon?

It's all good. I will wait a few days before configuring it. I don't want to flog the resources/bandwidth any more than is necessary.
Later!

I have filled 364 GB of my 1000 GB capacity.
Not gonna fill the whole TB this week, or ever.

During the upload, rclone achieved speeds around 3.7 MB/s for large files.
I was running rclone on EvolutionHost (OVH) France, reading from LevelOneServers Dallas and writing to HostBrr Falkenstein, using crypt backend on both sides but with different passwords.

It is KVM, VirtFusion control panel.
Custom ISO can be added on request.

This is my first time using VirtFusion control panel.
It responds faster than Virtualizor.
Enabling and disabling VNC does not need a reboot.
IPv4 NAT port mapping is configurable.

IPv6 is very stable.
I have been accessing this server over IPv6 only, and didn't bother with the IPv4 port mapping.
I didn't test IPv6 NDP as it's not needed on a storage server.

Custom ISO requires opening a ticket.
Within an hour the requested image (I asked for netboot.xyz for maximum flexibility) appeared in my account.
Debian setup was noticeably slow when I performed the installation, likely due to network congestion.

Ouch. The initial rush has died down, and hopefully going forward it should be much better

Most likely yes, I was performing some tests on a VM to help a client during the rush and I noticed rebuilding was slowed down significantly. Should also be better now.

Thanks for sharing your experience

I pressed "IPv6 subnet - assign address" button several times.
Now there are many addresses listed there, and no way to delete.
This is an eyesore.
Maybe VirtFusion should have a "delete address" button?

Mumbly · June 2023

I also miss the option to create my own addresses (ie. ::l337:bab3, ::1111:2222:3333, etc instead of assigning
::a, ::b, ::c, ... ::10, ::11, ::12 etc... in order) from my subnet, but that's not crucial - it's just a bit unique cosmetic limitation

I think it has been brought up and will (hopefully) be added. I can delete them for you if you want, just put in a ticket with the addresses you want deleted.

Would indeed be nice, I'll mention it as a suggestion to the VirtFusion team. I know they are working on some great upcoming features so I wouldn't get my hopes up for it being a priority anytime soon though.

All of the addresses in the assigned /64 are usable: put it on the network interface and traffic will come.
The Assign Address button does nothing other than adding an example address to the VirtFusion panel.
Thus, you can ignore the button completely and use your preferred addresses.

Mumbly · June 2023

Ah, yes, I haven't thought about that as @Labze added IPv6 rDNS support so quickly that format didn't matter so much to me anymore.

Is there gonna be another 40% off? i missed the "Storage-1GBrr" one. Also "5950X-1GBrr IPv6 Only" looks really good but 3tb bw is not great

Won't be another 40% off anytime soon. It was a introductury offer. BW is not capped right now, have a few who used over 200% their allowance. I'll only enforce BW limits if bandwidth becomes a issue for other users.
(but of course do not buy it solely on that premise)

Correct, it’s still a tad limited on the v6 side of things. Like you say, the full allocation is usable as we filter by subnet only.
