Thread: PulsedMedia: NEW 1Gbps Plans from Pulsed Media!

I thought this would deserve it's own thread! :P

So we released new 1Gbps Seedboxes, 2011 series today! :)

These are located in Netherlands, Easynet and Evoswitch DCs

Plans are as follows:
Small: 215Gb HDD, 1Gb RAM limit for rTorrent, Unlimited traffic. 29.95€/Month, or 19.95€ on annual payment cycle
Medium: 430Gb HDD, 2Gb RAM limit for rTorrent, Unlimited traffic. 44.95€/Month, or 34.95€ on annual payment cycle
Large: 860Gb HDD, 4Gb RAM limit for rTorrent, Unlimited traffic. 69.95€/Month, or 59.95€ on annual payment cycle



The users maximum per server is 24 planned right now, with 4 HDDs per server. We will keep close eye on overall performance, and if need be we will move to smaller servers, and thus less users per server.

But Wait! There is more :P
A xmas present of sorts for T-I users!

If you take monthly, then 15% permanent, recurring off for the 2011 order! :P Coupon for that would be: TI-XMAS-1GBPS

And a bit of something more too! If you take 3 months or more, a 10% permanent, recurring discount for the 2011 order! :P
Coupon for that would be: TI-XMAS-1GBPS-LONGER

And yes, you can get multiple plans with these coupons too, so you can snatch one for your friend too! ^^

The availability is very limited at first, current available is: 10xSmall, 23xMedium, 12xLarge

We are unsure when we will acquire more servers, but we'll try to cope with demand :) Oh yeah, one more thing, these promo codes will be valid only until 24th of Dec.

Great offers mate! What's the monthly traffic on the small plan?

Oh yeah, these are Unmetered/Unlimited for users! :P
These servers have a traffic limit, but it's unlikely to be met by our experience and research, the limit is 100Tb, which still leaves on the small 4Tb per user :)
If that too is ever a problem, we'll simply jump over to small servers or do some load balancing, not a big deal :)

Do you have any trial plan? if yes, i am gonna try medium becuase I am looking for a permanent room:)

No trials. sorry

24 users per server? :O Can u explain a bit more? :)

Does that mean 24 users simultaneously leeching and seeding using the same system ram and bandwidth? If that's the case, isn't that a lot?

It's not that a lot really, provided it's configured properly.

We have 2 HDD systems with 16 users, it's on the border line, but for the most part has a decent performance.

These have 4 HDDs which are faster and 24users. Not that big of a stretch. 6 users max per HDD vs. 8 users max per HDD. That combined to the following:

These HDDs has about 20-30% higher IOPS rate and ~10% higher sequential speed. That combined results in ~15% speed increase over our latest servers, a ~25% increase over older servers, maybe more, and double number of hdds.
It results to 250% higher performance than the older servers with 16 users.

That in combination to a mix and match of provisioning, say 2 large, 5 medium, rest small, and the user number per server is lower, yet everyone gets the torrent performance expected for their plan type (configured properly).

Look at me here, i'm giving you the ingredients on how to manage seedboxes effectively :D

The difference on unmanaged, regular, out of the box SB vs. properly managed and tuned servers are immense in performance.

In the end we expect better performance than the 2009+ offerings.

If this does not hold truth, we will change server type to make it hold truth. The problem with the other server type is that they require at least 3 months payment upfront, which is a no go when we need a bunch of servers at once. The only way around that would be limit sales immensively.

Stylo: It might sound a lot, but technology does go forward, and we are positive that this will have expected performance levels.

It seems good
