Re: Seedbox offer real cheap you thoughts on this
The only thing that seems to be abit off with it is that its only 1 ftp account. And just 8 torrents. Its ofcouse enough. But you are never going to be able to seed 15TB with that amount of torrents. Unless you only are seeding to public sites. And i cant seed the point in paying to seed to public sites :p
Other than that everything seems grate for a seedbox. 70gb is more than enough if you only have 8 torrents you can seed.

It's not really that outrageous...my website has 10TB of bandwidth and I pay much less than $45 a month...

Re: Seedbox offer real cheap you thoughts on this
You'd be better off paying another $25 bucks and get an entry-level LeaseWeb box with a 5Mbps unmetered connection.
When it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.......

After logging to torrentflux in it seems that each part of the dedicated server is divided up amongst 10 people http://imageupload.se/files/071114/9204firstlook.JPG
To play it safe I am testing it out by downloading the latest release of fedora because I'm very paranoid :yup: Granted it is on a public tracker so the speeds may not be that great but it should give me an idea of what I'm dealing with for speeds. Also highest downspeed so far
http://imageupload.se/files/071114/2883speed.JPG
I have yet to figure out how to login to their ftp server because when I do, no files show up so if anyone has any suggestions feel free to PM me or leave a post here. Also any other questions about the company can you can pm or post them here and I can try my best to answer them
*edit* Nevermind I figured out the ftp. It helps when you start downloading something first :P
*edit 2* I'll post another update on stuff tomorrow when I wakeup, also the speed thing so far is no issue. After having the same torrent on my vectoral box open for the same time (and ya you may be connected to different peers blah blah) i was seeing relatively the same speeds. If anyone knows of a good torrent i can use to test the speeds or something of that nature please let me know
Re: Seedbox offer real cheap you thoughts on this

Looks very interesting, tell me how it goes :P
Re: Seedbox offer real cheap you thoughts on this
That is a damn good deal, hopefully the speed manages to stay high over a while.
Is it a shared connection? If it is, that would slow it down when more people are using it right?
