Start
Starting at Vultr is very convenient, after registering the account they require to recharge to get $ 5 promotion and create VPS. I have fully loaded $ 30 because thought it is enough for to run at least a week here because after a week I will also move back to the old server.
Finished, I proceeded to create a VPS configuration is 8GB RAM / 120GB hard drive / 5000GB bandwidth with CentOS 6 x64 operating system and server of his choice in Japan.
From the time we create the server until we complete the transfer is about 20p, that is nothing to happen. It's a server in Asia, but I have access to blogs at a pretty good pace.
In short, starting at Vultr there is nothing to complain about. Of course, if I did not complain, I did not write this, the problem was unexpected after a day.
Day 2 at Vultr
While watching the technicians of BudgetVM deal with another server, he suddenly received a series of emails Thachpham.com reported downtime.

Actually, on 27/9, Thachpham.com downtime many times but other times by the initiative to turn off the server, but 3 emails it is reported while I have completed the work to correct the error. Feeling insecure, I ping the IP of the VPS is not seen the signal returned.
Then we try to log into SSH to see if the webserver is faulty or not, unfortunately not into SSH. I conclude that the server is having problems from within so I rushed to email the facilitator with the intention of asking why I can not access my server even though the account manager at Vultr is still reporting. is Online.
The answer is really shocking, it is a hard drive partition error (like the bad hard disk you are encountering) and the system can not boot the operating system.

When I saw the "grub boot menu" I began to cold backbone because I have installed a lot of operating system for Dedicated Server, the case to Grub Mode is because the system can not find the file needed to boot.
What frustrated me here was the irresponsible answer from Vultr and not apologizing for a statement that said "reinstalling the operating system is a necessity", so what's my important data? To
I asked them once again is my data really lost? They answered very well.

To be honest, I have used so many vendors already. In any case, they will quickly find a way to rectify and apologize to the customer, saying that the data is lost, you should back up regularly, ... Do not dare to open a mouth. sorry or how to make customers peace of mind.
After a while contact, they still do not look through their VPS so I try to try to access the console.

Oke, this means that there is no other way as the whole partition is lost, why? I did not touch anything in the system because today I am very busy, no one is free to move on.
As a result, I left Vultr even though it was over $ 20 in credits, but decided not to try it again.
But luckily Thachpham.com is always backed up in real-time so it's easy to recover so you can now access and view this article.
Conclude
I do not know how you are using Vultr services, how supported. It may be unlucky, but this is the most frightening experience in the history of using the host in general and VPS in particular, never had problems related to the hard drive.
