The Barbecue Box Beta!
Today we want to announce a new plan that we are testing: the Barbecue Box. We are trying something different this time, the most significant change; It's not unmetered. We wanted to offer boxes with more upload speed but offering 1Gbit unmetered is just not affordable. To make this plan feasible we are imposing upload limits instead of going with "unmetered".
These are the specs:
Barbecue Box 450GB diskspace 1Gbit download speed 300Mbit upload per user 5TB Upload limit per month 20 Euro a monthThis is a first for us, so we might be tweaking the plan a bit. If we make changes we will always notify you of the changes before hand.
The servers we will use for this plan are connected to a 1Gbit pipe but we limit each user's speed to 300Mbit upload. We hope that imposing limits will give each member a fair share of the available resources. Due to the upload limitations for this plan we have high hopes that there will always be enough bandwidth available for you to burst to 300Mbit, but real usage should prove our theories.
If you go over your 5TB upload quota you will be limited to 2Mbit untill your new invoice is generated, this is when the quota is reset. We have a limited amount of slots available, if all goes well we will have an unlimited supply soon.
What are you waiting for? Go ahead and grab a limited supply slice to provide us with valuable feedback! If you have any questions, please leave us a message in the comments. :)
