Hi @cservers , I made a pre-sale order for 3 years couple of days back and it is yet to be provisioned. Just wondering if this would be processed at all in the coming days or refund would be issued since you've mentioned changes to the offer is being worked out.

I guess the 99 years mentioned is for provisioning

Hi @cservers,

Just to be clear, I was referring to the pre-sale deal posted on your website. Initially, Lisbon ( Portugal) was mentioned as the location of the proposed data center and the proposed provision date was mentioned as on or before 14th January.

For some reason the data center location was changed to Germany due to inability to secure good deal as mentioned in the earlier post by you and the proposed provisioning data got changed to around 16th -20th January.

I chose 3 years deal instead of 99 years deal although there were other timeframes ( 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years) to choose from.

Can you please confirm if this presale deal is still being worked out by you as I can't see any reference to this on the website?

Thanks!

It rains heavily here every day, I'm too lazy to go out to buy popcorn.

Seller needs to travel to the data center, perform a vibe check on the remote hands, verify the fire extinguishers, and personally install the server.
After all, the server has to last there for 99 years.

During those 99 years, data center's intermittent power outages were as heart-pounding as watching a buyer's ECG doing continuous push-ups.

I just received an email from C-Servers regarding the new server details. I haven't got time to log on to the server yet. A bit of learning curve as it is ipv6.

Will post the benchmark results shortly.

Actually was about to ask for a Refund, however Telehouse does compensate for Lisbon, so I am set.

Btw, beside cservers did you or anyone know providers that still use 23M network?

1fire.de used to be with 23M but now SYNLINQ

hobenzun · January 20

Already requested a refund

I couldn't find a useful provider for the 23m, but C-servers have been restocked, and the price seems to have changed.

Out of stockness...

Out of Stock!

We are working to increase our stocks. Please check again later.

Thank you for your interest.

@cservers said: I am handling this and in talks with multiple datacenters as we speak (so, no basements) for a long-term relationship,

But the thing is, basement operations are the tastiest!
I can run a basement server until the rest of my life.
Host it in a datacenter it starts to get difficult...

cservers · January 20

Hope it was worth the wait.

Several differences on these new servers as well:

disk virtualization is now virtio instead of scsi
reduced I/O operations and disk optimizations were tested on Zeta4 (to be deployed soon) and done all across the board on all three servers (this one, Zeta1 and Zeta3), with improvements for 512k and 1M on all servers (and 64k on the Zeta 3)
Underlying kernel is much more recent (= more performant)
Has livepatching to ensure additional uptime

Among other changes. Which were basically why it took so long as well.

We've also adjusted the "99 year plans" according to your feedback.
This is now a separate section called "MultiVPS One-Time Paid Servers", the writing was intentionally made clearer.

They are now called "DynamicVPS", have a lower one-off cost, and actually have multiple differences:

they are pegged (more or less) to equivalent products, so that customers always know what they are buying
predict dynamic growth over time of vCores, RAM, disk and bandwidth, tied to the respective product ranges they address
are not tied to a direct CPU, although by product range equivalency they are always tied to a regular CPU (the same other customers are having)
are not tied to a specific location, but are tied to a specific region (Europe, at this moment)
guarantee at least the IPv6.

It gets much closer to the Servarica offer, in that sense.

Stock is internally limited to ~5% of the entire pool of available VPSes, for sustainability reasons.

We are now working to start to offer storage servers (and services) very soon.

Neoon · January 20

Please do offer cheap storage, however make it good.
Storage from host_c is usable and stable however so far any storage from Hostbbr is kinda slow and slugish.

To me, the new plans look much better than the old.

This is not an endorsement
