Hi Everyone

Can JodoHost clarify what hardware the servers are using. One of my customers was asking

Thanks in advance
 
Window Web servers -
Dual Xeon 2.4GHZ
4GB of RAM
Dual Gigabit Network cards
73GBx2 SCSI HD RAID1 (Hot-Swap)

MS SQL Servers -
Pentium 4 2.8GHZ (Hyper-Threaded)
2GB of RAM
Dual Gigabit Network Cards
200GBx2 SATA HD RAID1

Linux servers -
Dual Xeon 2.4GHZ
2GB to 4GB of RAM
Dual Gigabit Network cards
36GBx3 SCSI HD RAID5 (Hot-Swap)

VPS Servers -
Dual Xeon 2.4GHZ
4GB of Ram (will be xpanded to 12 GB)
Dual Gigabit Network cards
73GBx3 SCSI HD RAID5 (Hot-swap)
 
can I state that on my website?
Also, I was just curious, why are you using single processors on the MS SQL servers?
 
Sure, you can take any information from our website and post it on your's.

Regarding the MS SQL Servers. If we setup a Dual Xeon server for MS SQL, we'd have to pay double the licensing fee. If we paid souble the licensing fee, we would want to put at least 700 databases on it to make adequate usage of the license and processors. But 700 databases would take an enormous amount of time to load in Enterprise manager for our customers..

Therefore we are sticking to single Pentium 4 2.8GHZ Hyper-trheaded processors. We put about 350 databases on each ms sql server which the processor can handle very well (the server actually sees two processors as its hyper-threaded) and customers do not mind.

Our future MS SQL servers (our current have almost reached capacity) will however make use of SCSI hard disks which give better performance than SATA hard disks.
