can you be more specific?
btw, this should not be discussed here but through support email.

dwdm can I ask you, is raid0 free or will I need to purchase a raid controller for it? Could you possibly give me a email address to contact you cause I am interested in reselling your services as I have many potential clients

raid controller prices are listed on the website - our email too.

my personal opinion: RAID-0 is suicide! If one disk dies, everything dies.

I was wondering if the following product would be interesting: (this is not an official product, JUST an idea):

Renting pre-owned / refurbished servers

- older configuration, not 100% defined as this could vary between AMD 3700 - AMD X2 4200+ in terms of CPU and probably only 1-2 GB RAM.
- limited liablity from our side (if the server breaks, it will take longer to get it fixed)
- same bandwidth policy as for all the other servers
- same control panel and features (rescue / reboot / reinstall / ...)
- might involve some sort of "waiting list", as these sort of servers will not be available all the time because they cannot just be built on demand

I was thinking that this might be of interest for people seeking something ultra low budget. I am not sure about the pricing, but we would talk about 30-39 EUR per month with very little setup (like 20-29 EUR)

Since we are constantly upgrading our server plans it is normal that servers that have been running for a while might get free and this would be an opportunity to get them back into the rotation for much less money.

What do you guys think? Any creative ideas except the idea of waiving setup and giving Gbit ports

?

I think it would be a great idea for people on a budget (like myself). The only thing I would be worried about is if something did break you stated that it would take longer to fix, would this push back the renew date or seomthing.

example, say the processor went out and it took 3 days to fix, would the next months payment get pushed back 3 day?

I would be very interested in this if the setup fee was reasonable. (the main thing preventing me from using your company currently, but I understand that it can't be avoided)

Thanks, Carl
