New generation servers with powerful
AMD technology. - Top of the line
hardware classes with 12 processing
cores and up to 32 GB RAM. - Price
reductions for some server classes.
1&1 Internet Inc, www.1and1.com, the
world's largest Web host by known
servers, is the first Web hosting
company to globally launch dedicated
servers with Hexa-Core processors
(also known as Six-Core AMD). 1&1
has expanded its server portfolio
with two additional premium models
for professional use as a Web or
application server. The advantages
include outstanding performance with
high-level availability and supreme
reliability, with the servers
benefiting from excellent
connectivity to 1&1’s best in class
data centers.
1&1’s new flagship server is the
Hexa-Core 3XL, with 2 AMD Hexa-Core
Opteron 2423 CPUs, a massive 32 GB
of RAM, professional redundancy with
RAID 5 and 2 Terabytes of usable
disk space. The Hexa-Core 3XL is
priced from $599.99/month. The
second newcomer, the Hexa-Core XXL,
also provides the same 12 processor
cores, with 16 GB RAM and 1.5
Terabytes of usable disk space. The
Hexa-Core XXL is priced from
$499.99/month. This extremely
powerful hardware is most beneficial
when used for resource-intensive
applications such as developing and
hosting applications, distributed
computing, virtual platforms, or
online games.
1&1’s Hexa-Core servers set a new
performance standard. An independent
institute conducted a benchmark
study that found that as a result of
their unparalleled Hexa-Core
technology, the new servers deliver
up to 47 per cent higher performance
as compared to existing top models
that use Quad-Core.
1&1 will utilize the energy-saving
High Efficiency (HE) version of the
AMD Opteron series, meaning the
performance benefits are accompanied
by high efficiency. With a 2 GHz
clock frequency, the fast Hexa-Core
processors consume only 55 Watt ACP
(Average CPU Power) and 79 Watt TDP
(Thermal Design Power).
1&1’s Hexa-Core XXL and Hexa-Core
3XL servers are available in Linux
or Windows configurations. 1&1 also
offers a “Website Server” solution
for users running a Web server.
Furthermore, all 1&1 dedicated
server solutions include 2 physical
hard drives in RAID configuration, 1
free domain name, 3,000 free email
accounts, 1 dedicated SSL
certificate for secure information
transfer and generous traffic
allocations. Regularly, the
commitment period for both new
server packages can be selected as
either 1 month with $99 set-up fee,
or 12 months with no set-up fee.
However, in March and April 1&1 is
offering the first 6 months at 50
per cent off with a 12 month
contract commitment.
1&1 has also cut the price of their
Quad-Core XXL server from starting
at $499.99 to $449.99.
