[Test archive] Evoxt Frankfurt VM-0.5 at $2.99/month

0. Preface

A certain unnamed group owner @Kyoma 's Evoxt VPS. Let's test it.

1. Configuration

*Includes one weekly backup.

2. YABS

The 5GB disk is really too small; NodeQuality errors out directly.

curl -sL https://yabs.sh | bash -s -- -i -5 -6

5. Summary

A European VPS without many highlights. It is not very competitive in Europe, has average value for money, and is not really worth buying.

6. About the tests

The machine tested in this article, "Evoxt DE VM-0.5", was provided by group/forum friend @Kyoma; the other machines, including all machines used for iPerf3 speed tests, were purchased at my own expense. Results may be time-sensitive.
