I am in the EU :-)
What I'm really looking for is the storage. The KS-2G is exactly the right size for off-site backups that I can control end to end. Very cheap too! ~£3/month for 500GB storage with unlimited bandwidth is pretty decent. I don't care about memory or the processor, just that I can rsync encrypted copies of my data to an off-site location cheaply.
- aroch 13y agoThere's no such thing as "unlimited" bandwidth...It's "unmetered" in the loosest sense but they get around high bw usage by only supplying "best effort" bandwidth. They're more than welcome to choke connections that happen to leave their network for transit. The reason they're EU only is OVH is relying on the fact that 90+% of the traffic is going to travel through their network and leave a PoP directly to your ISP
- kintamanimatt 13y agoI know there's no such thing as unlimited bandwidth. I was being linguistically sloppy! My upstream bandwidth is far less than the 100Mbit connection they provide, so even even if I do the initial backup using both my phone and DSL connection, I'm not going to hit more than 10Mbit up at best. (My mobile phone co. really doesn't seem to give a shit how much data I transfer while tethering.)
