As a matter of fact, all the new models has the 1 Gbps port, while the old models has the faster port, but no longer any hardware raid.

So then I guess I need to choose between speed or hardware raid... That makes me unhappy because I am running VMWare on my servers, and that makes it impossible to use software RAID. And I want the speed as all the virtual machines on so far 4 servers are communicating over the vRack network.
The one's your referring to are the old range, which is why the types available are limited, obviously nothing that can be done in terms of the vRack offerings for the new range.

For whatever reason you're seeing the old models only and not the new models, try clearing your cache.

The direct order link for it is: https://www.ovh.co.uk/order/dedies.cgi?hard=160eg31

When I do that, I only see two options with 10 Gbps, and they have 2x4TB and 3x300GB - both with software RAID.
It looks like you attached a picture to your post, but I just see an icon with an "X" in it.

I can see it perfectly fine:

Click the '+' symbol on the left of the server name to view all available configuration options.

Hi,

Is it no longer possible to order the EG-128 server with the HardRaid 3x4TB option (or similar)?
When I select the EG-128 I don't see the options selection anymore.

It is the version with 10GB network cards (vRack) I am looking for, I should probably mention.

Regards
Jonas
