| Limits |
CPU/IO fair-use (0.5-1 core, standard IO priority). RAID5 survives one drive. 25% burst quota above allocation; bonus disk grows with account age. Live fleet stats published (median 25.7 users/server, 37.1 ms disk response, 24.1% disks busy) — unusually honest disclosure. |
| Identity | email email |
| Egress | "Internet egress: Unlimited@100Mbps (~30TB/Month / ~1TB/Day)" + "Burst egress: 10Gbps 500GiB/month" + "DC internal: Unlimited at 10Gbps" + "Ingress: Unlimited at 10Gbps". This is the honest form of unmetered: the cap is a 100 Mbit/s port, not a byte counter, and the vendor states the implied monthly figure (~30 TB). The 10 Gbps burst allowance IS a real 500 GiB/month counter. free allowance: 30TB per month |

| Composes with | Pools cleanly behind AList/OpenList (WebDAV) or rclone serve s3, then Cloudflare. Same-datacenter transfers to a PulsedMedia seedbox run 70-75 MB/s, so the hot/cold split (hot on seedbox NVMe, cold here) is a native pattern. |
| Reliability | Finnish own hardware (Helsinki Lauttasaari, Kerava). V-series is RAID0 — pick M-series. Not a hyperscaler; a one-shop provider. |
