Thursday, May 14th, 2009

Sitestash has started to deploy Sun Microsystems Sun Fire servers for business class shared webhosting servers. Our Supermicro line well remain in service as the hardware flexibility is unbeatable, but we do expect the Sun Fire’s to take over on the business class webhosting services.

The new Sun Fire servers feature the latest in high performance hardware, all include hotswap SAS based disk drives or 10k RPM SATA in some models, built in RAID controllers, multiple built-in gigabit ethernet ports for connection to our NAS arrays and backend network, full lights out management cards for access to servers without needing physical access, redundant power supplies, and hotswap cooling fans.

These new servers will be deployed entirely on our hybrid security network, ensuring the best possible protection for your business related website.

Sitestash Introduces Solid State Disk Drives To The Server Line

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Sitestash is pleased to announce the launch of Solid State Disk Drives (SSD) on our new high performance servers. The performance differance between SSD drives and server grade SATA drives is so great, that the speed increse is outweighing one of the most important factors, cost. Sitestash is expecting to do more extensive testing, primarily in high load database servers to see if the performance vs. cost results will carry over into more standard server configurations.
