Was interested until I saw “IPv6 is currently not available.” …need to have that these days.
One of ColoCrossing’s shell companies, what’d you expect?
how is stability of network? i know lot of game hosting servers get attacked/hacked/ddos. like to expand a project for my family (family photos/videos) and like to get some good SSD space. just dont want horrible down times!
“Aaron told me to assure you that the servers they use for VPS hosting are not used for MC Hosting.”
You shouldn’t have to worry that much.
Great, 50Gb SSD! Would someone post disk benchmark?
SSD or SSD cache ecouse this diffrent many provider write SSD but the true only SSD cache
This is true RAID 10 SSD, write speeds are nearly 2000mbps. Our network for our game servers and our VPS are in the same datacenter, but protected from each other. We have yet to have a DDOS on a game server ever effect our VPS in any way.
48 hour refund, give us a try and see if it works for you.
Quick question: When you say “This promotion will expire by the end of the month,” do you mean that it will expire at the end of the month, or before? Currently trying to decide a couple of options before the deadline runs out.
I just bought this offer and I’m impressed by the performance. Network and I/O are awesome. Here some results:
I/O write test:
Network speed test (with speedtest.net python client):
CPU Information: cat /proc/cpuinfo
Hope they continue with this level of performance from now on.
Thanks
Kinda new to the world of VPS. Would I be able to install Plex media server along with Sab+, Sickbeard, Couchpotato etc?
It sounds like you want to build something for local media files, VPS of this nature of more for things like web based services.
you probably need to search for a bare bones system and buy one of those, or go get an old computer from a garage sale.
Hello, just wondering if I were to buy a VPS from here would I be allowed to host my own type of game servers? They’re not a target for any DDoS attacks either so they won’t affect your network.
