Big dedicated servers update
Earlier this month, our CTO assigned our administrators to plan a serious upgrade for our dedicated server packages. After a few weeks of research and testing, they are ready with 3 completely new dedicated server configurations, which will replace the current packages we are offering. The new dedicated servers now offer more hardware power – you can check out the new features of our dedicated machines in the table below:
| New Features | |||
| HDD 1 | HDD 2 | HDD 3 | |
| Disk Space/HDDs | 2x 250 GB HDD’s | 2x 500 GB HDD’s | 4x 500 GB HDD’s |
| Monthly Traffic | 10 TB Bandwidth | 11 TB Bandwidth | 12 TB Bandwidth |
| CPU | Intel Atom D525 1.8 GHz (2 cores) | AMD Opteron 4170 HE 2.1 GHz (6 cores) | 2x AMD Opteron 4170 HE 2.1 GHz (12 cores) |
| RAM | 4 GB DDR3 | 8 GB DDR3 | 16 GB DDR3 |
| Network | Gbit Network Cards | Gbit Network Cards | Gbit Network Cards |
| Dedicated IP Address | 3 | 3 | 3 |
| Domains Hosted | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
A change in the hardware also means a change in the pricing. Here are the new prices for our servers:
Another big change regarding our dedicated servers is that they will now be housed in a new data center located in Chicago and operated by Steadfast Networks. Their data center facility located in downtown Chicago was finished just a year ago and is one of the top data center facilities in the Chicago area.
The data center has a vast peering network with several major backbone providers, which means that each dedicated machine hosted there will enjoy excellent Internet connectivity.
