Dedicated server · AMD EPYC 9454P
DS-6: 96 threads, 256 GB, 2 × 1.92 TB NVMe
DS-6 is a true server part rather than a desktop one: 48 EPYC cores, 96 threads, 256 GB of DDR5 and 3.84 TB of NVMe. It is the machine for consolidating an estate onto one bill, or for a workload that has genuinely run out of room on everything above it. At $673.90 a month it is also cheaper per thread than anything else in the lineup.

Scope
What the price covers.
The right-hand column is not a list of things we are working on. It is the shape of the product.
In the price
- A whole physical machine — no hypervisor of ours, no neighbours, no oversubscription
- 1 Gbit uplink with unmetered traffic
- One IPv4 address and a /64 of IPv6
- Full hardware access: run your own hypervisor, container platform or bare operating system
- Available in Germany
- Provisioned within one business day of the order clearing
Not in the price
- Self-managed: operating system, patching and application support are yours
- A one-off setup fee applies on the first invoice and is not refundable
- No hourly billing and no minute-scale provisioning — this is hardware, not an instance
- No panel-driven resize: changing machine is a migration to a different one
- No Windows licensing sold with it; the images we support are Linux
- We do not publish IOPS figures for these drives because we have not measured them ourselves
Suited to
What DS-6 is the right machine for.
Ninety-six server threads and 256 GB — the largest machine we sell.
- Consolidating an estate
- Ninety-six threads and a quarter of a terabyte of memory replaces a rack of small instances, with one invoice and one machine to keep patched.
- A virtualisation host of your own
- Run your own hypervisor on it and carve the machine up however you like — it is yours.
- Large parallel workloads
- Build farms, analysis jobs and anything else that scales with cores until it runs out of them.
