Kimisufu box questions~
« on: October 23, 2011, 03:40:19 PM »
Anyone have a kimisufi box? I have a 300/300 100GB/2.5TB at Whatbox right now, but I can never max out the 300/300 and the 100GB of space is very limiting. So, I was thinking of switching to kimisufi 2G this month:



100/100 1TB/5TB will be much more useful to me. :)

But I don't know what to choose... looky: https://www.ovh.co.uk/order/kimsufi.cgi?hard=110sk1

Sooooo many options! o__o... Anywho, I only know how to use Windows, but here's my considerations...

- I'd like to be able to ssh in so I could use it as a VPN as well.
- I'd like to have an FTP server on it.
- I'd like to have a torrent program on it. uTorrent/ruTorrent
- Maybe use it to stream movies...

Right, so... watdo. My Whatbox runs out in 3 days btw, so I only have a few days to figure this out. Preferably sooner rather than later...

edit: Looking over it, I guess I'll want the Remote Desktop: Ubuntu option? https://www.ovh.co.uk/dedicated_servers/distributions/ubuntu_desktop.xml

edit: Ah god... I think I need to be in the UK...

I'm using a server from FDC servers... I have root access to it meaning I can use it for anything I want.
100/100 no caps... I'm always doing around 7.5MB/s to 10MB/s upload.

Using Fedora 14 as my OS.

If you don't know how to use linux stay away. You'll get zero support on software issues, they'll just help you with hardware problems. You'll have to install everything yourself including a torrent client, ftp server, etc.

There is a pretty extensive thread about them over at what.cd, if you're a member I recommend checking it out.
