Hi guys

Before doing the review i just want to say thanks to Virmach and Post4VPS for providing me this glorious VPS 9 . now lets go to the review . VPS 9 is one of the most wanted VPS in this forum and i have no doubt that it is because of the huge memory and great performance for free and even paid VPS.

last time i checked it can go up to 800MB/s but maybe it is being used by other because the resource is shared
Speedtest.net to nearest location REMEMBER THE SPEEDTEST.NET USE MEGABITS INSTEAD OF MEGABYTE . THAT WHY IT IS DIFFERENT

What i do with the VPS
i use this VPS currently to host my website (i get much better experience using VPS to host my website instead of using shared hosting) and also game server . i run a minecraft pocket edition server using nukkit . i host indonesian server there where who playing there is local and some people experience lagging due to high latency . but it is still better than not having server at all . i cannot afford a $40 Vultr 8GB singapore VPS that have low larency but i can afford posting 20 post per month

Experience of using the VPS
Pros:
-It have lot of memory . and because of the memory i can do multitasking with the vps . multitasking with the vps mean that i can use the vps for not just one thing but for lot of thing . i use this vps for hosting my website , game server , and more . and this "lot of memory" does not only mean multitasking but also more headroom and performance . with this vps i dont need to really worrying about getting out of memory (except if i run SAP HANA)

-the SSD speed is blazing fast . really fast . we are talking about up to 800MB/s MEGABYTE NOT MEGABITS . and blazing ssd speed is important for running high traffic website and also game server because you are loading and unloading a world to ram . i can copy my whole minecraft pocket edition server file to another folder for blazingly fast 0 seconds . YES it is almost instant . my mcpe file is around 300MB . if i use my pc that have spinning (not related to fidget spinner) hard drive it would take sometime

-not only blazing fast . the SSD storage is huge . VPS 9 is the 3rd VPS with largest storage in Post4VPS (1st is VPS4 , 2nd is VPS12 and 3rd is VPS 9 and VPS 1) . when you use 100GB in your pc it look small but when you use it in VPS its a whole another story . i can backup my server every day for a month without worrying about disk space . my VPS only take 3GB of disk space right now but atleast i dont need to worry about storage overfilling like my pc that only have 160gb hard drive

-it have 3 IPv6 Address to Future Proof . my ISP didnt support IPv6 unfortunately but when the IPv6 Transition start all ISPs probably have the IPv6 Support . VPS 9 have IPv6 .  9 - 6 = 3 half life 3 confirmed


Cons:
-2 Cores is OK . i have no complain about it but i have a bottleneck feeling about the VPS only have 2 core paired with 8GB memory . i know some major hosting company that really greedy about their internet bandwith ehm.. AWS also offer 8GB with 2 core . and also the core is fair use . so my minecraft pocket edition server is only using 40% of the cpu and i achieve that by using cpulimit command and it is work flawlessly . and even though it limited to 40% i experience no lag caused by the cpu

-HUGE PING TO MY LOCATION . nothing to complain because if i want low latency i should buy a nearest vps or move to US to get the lowest ping from VPS 9 but for VPS that i got it from just posting 20 post per month im not complain much . im not feeling a major lag in the game server but i get a noticeable lag . and the lag is caused by the latency so there are no bottleneck in the cpu , ram or the ssd

-No Control Panel . i can live without control panel . in fact my website is running using only terminal without any control panel like cpanel or kloxo so it isnt a big deal

Conclusion
it is a great VPS . and also it is my first VPS that i got from post 2 host site . and now this VPS is my primary vps to use for my VPS needs . it have a really great performance like i said before but the only major problem with the VPS is the location . but i can deal with that because i got it for free and  even though if i paid for this vps . it is much cheaper than buying singapore or IIX vps





Rating : 8/10 . if it is 10/10 i want to say just like skyrim
