    Thanks for the answer @host_c - I simply wanted to know your stance on these things. It is not that I am an abuser or something, don't get me wrong. I was simply curious about your stance as a provider.

    Meanwhile I highly recommend @host_c so far due to performance of services, openness in replies and transparency using pictures.

    I did not. :3

    Thank you for the question, as this way, my answer is more precise.

    So, any of you on the BF thread got a service? please either open a ticket or reply here if the IPV6 routing does not work correctly.

    Mine don't work but, it might be because I don't have any? :tongue:

    Once you try a host-c storage deal, you know. No drama, BS, even runs windows fine, and no one mining shitcoin or running a train on the hypervisor... to the point of people stalking the ASN waiting for new deals.

    I feel bad taking one of the three but couldn't resist another machine... At least I have another storage machine + UptimeKuma instance (original purpose)

    Thanks @host_c for a very uneventful hosting experience - my favorite kind.

    Honestly, when I got it I did not realize how good of a deal it was, but the longer I have it, the more likely I am to keep it now :P If a 4TB was cheaper I might swap down to that

    Same here... it's unlikely that any future 4TB deal might be cheaper than the 5TB special (~USD61/yr, with extra 2GB add-on).
    So I'll have to live with 1TB of /dev/sdb remaining unpartitioned and of no use (boo-hoo-hoo). :p

    will always do some crazy stuff, but yes, at that price / TB, only if someone finds cociu's drives and sends them to us.

    we have some NETAPP shelves around, so even 4 TB disks will do. =)

    This has sort of been my go to since... forever, just swap: ext2 -> 3 -> 4 -> xfs.

    Oh I meant to ask -- why xfs over ext4? My filesystem knowledge is not great, tbh.

  • host_chost_c Hosting Provider

    Xfs is a more modern film system, for todays work loads

    In the teste we did, and we tested all, it was a clear winner

    Especially handling large files, resiliency on hard reset, paralel read and write performance, IO handling, and low impact on cpu and ram.

    Since I am already in bed I will just quote this

    Best Use Cases:
    1. Large File Storage: XFS excels in environments where large files are common, such as video editing and large database applications.
    2. High-performance Applications: It is optimized for high-performance computing and I/O-intensive tasks, making it suitable for enterprise applications.
    3. Scalability: XFS can handle massive amounts of data and is designed to scale efficiently, which is beneficial for large storage systems.
    4. File Systems with High Throughput: If your application requires high throughput and low latency, XFS is a strong candidate.
    5. Multi-threaded Environments: XFS handles concurrent access well, making it ideal for multi-threaded applications and workloads.

    Advantages:

    • Excellent performance with large files and high I/O operations.
    • Dynamic allocation of inodes, which allows for more efficient space management.
    • Supports online resizing, enabling administrators to expand the file system without downtime.

    @SocksAreComfortable said: Oh I meant to ask -- why xfs over ext4? My filesystem knowledge is not great, tbh.

    Mostly parallel I/O over ext4 so large files, etc. will transfer faster. In some situations ext4 can serve smaller files faster. In most cases with large files and nowadays xfs has the upperhand. Also should something go wrong, xfs has a degree of built-in online self-healing, where as with ext4 in the same situation, you'll need a boot CD or fsck.

    EDIT: Just realized @host_c already gave a much better complete answer than I did, whoops.

    I already got it reformatted! Even updated my /etc/fstab (which helped me learn that changing filesystem would change the UUID...guessing it's whenever it reformats).

    There's no one-size-fit-all solution when it comes to filesystems -- different user have different needs, different FSes have different pros/cons; one should always give some thought, rather than going for the purported "best" or "most popular". (FYI: vanilla BTRFS also works great for /sdb :bleep_bloop: )
