Just for the first month, thanks

Damn i missed this! Just bought one NL-E750 yesterday and used the 10OFF promo only

But i can tell you that: the VPS has very nice speeds. Rest of the hardware...not so sure, as i'm re-raring and copying files around, i can see these processes are slow. I'm downloading at 40mb/s right now, but CPU goes up to 60% easily (i have 1GB RAM and .rtorrent.rc configured to 600MB maximum usage)...


EDIT: Can you, nano, tell me how many customers per HDD the NL-E1500 has? Mine has 2 per HDD, right?

Thanks for your review, I think the problem is that you do not have enough RAM, the server only has 4 clients on it at the moment and is hardly being used.

Uptime / Load: 23:26:59 up 1 day, 20:23, 1 user, load average: 0.57, 0.49, 0.51

Correct the E-1500 has 2 users per disk, the E-750 has 4 users

[MojoRisin]

Yes, i know, i'll consider upgrading the RAM as the VPS is, currently, very cheap.

4 user per HDD on this server? Damn, that is a lot. Maximum should be 3...

Not quite right... WD Blacks, 6GB/s im pretty sure they wouldnt be adding 4 users if the %WA's were crazy of the disk IO's were stupid ya know?
