Hi
First of all, Shadow for Makers have more storage, specifically 1TB but is more expensive than normal Shadow
Second, the RTX A6000 is equivalent to a RTX 3090
Third, yes, I think than is encrypted the keyboard input, for me I use it and I don’t have any problem
But if you don’t trust you can install a keyboard encryption for write on Shadow
Then Shadow Drive is not like another drive, it’s like Google Drive, it’s great for save projects or data than you want to save to the cloud, but not suitable for games
Then, yes, you can use it for AI purposes and for host a Discord bot while you’re doing something on Shadow, because if not it will shutdown because the autoshutdown than have Shadow for free inactive instances
Then, yes, it can run out of stock if there is no more capacity for new users, but old users will not have any problem
Then, what determinates than a plan is out of stock is what I said, there is more users than machines available to host them all in the same time
And finally, the performance on Shadow machines it’s great, the base plan have a GTX 1080 and an Intel Xeon CPU and the Power plan have a RTX A4500(RTX 3070) and an AMD CPU

Which RTX A6000 does the Shadow for Makers actually use?
RTX 6000 not A6000. Love that Nvidia love to confuse people.

It's the Turing RTX6000, not the Ada one.

Yes you can upgrade, no there’s no further set up fee, just the extra for that upgrade at pro rated fee.
Takes about 20-30 mins of being shutdown to go from Base to Power.

Additional storage is D Drive yes, no way about this. However, already rolled out in the US is 512GB system drive and 28GB ram for Power. It will come to Europe in due time. (Costs about 5 p/m more)

They're neither... The drives are SAN.. Essentially HDD with SSD Caches. Read speeds can get to 500MB/s

Hi, have you set the option in the Shadow launcher to match your local screen resolution?

you have some really good questions. i was a bit sceptic at first. but shadow is truely a reliable VM. a lot of other companies do in fact charge way to much for what they offer. sure there VM's are super awesome. probably hardly any lag. but there is latancy and no matter what you do your always get it. shadow has some latacy sometimes. the VM runs like a champ. for gaming i hardly notice any game lag at all. the VM is more then enough for AI stuff. storage is greate. the price is just right. pay one time use for a whole month. and for what i do the other VM sites out there would charge me over 600 a month for how i use my pc. a few months go by i could of payed for my own pc. over all shadow seems like a scam. but it truely isn't. i really love how much shadow takes the load of my games. and my pc can get a break. and im not paying an arm and a leg for a VM. like other places charge. mostly you get tokens. thats what will get you. you pay for all these tokens and by the time you know it your spent over 600.
