Just wondering what you hardware setup is for your servers?

All servers are different depending on what they're used for but at a minimum
 
Multiple drives in RAID 1 or RAID 10
8GB RAM
Quad Core CPU
CludLinux
cPanel
Softaculous
 
These are bare minimums however. Some production servers are beefier.

This is my next step is setting up servers, something I have always wanted to get into. I also thinks it's a must for any growing company. Resellers and vps's  are great to start off with but over time you will out grow them and need more.

Absolutely. Not only that but you'll want to have more control over your hosting environment as well.

Thanks. We host technewscentral.co.uk which has used around 40Gb of bandwidth in a month. The previous setup we had with a high end vps didn't cut it. There were some major load spikes which caused slowness and some site downtimes even after the server was further optimised.

Very Nice setup I like the 3.9 GHz turbo boost

Jordan Smith

Thanks, we have a few 64GB Servers too, but the 128GB servers are mainly for some of our clients!

Understandable, now do they each get a 12GB server or is that shared?

Jordan Smith

Nope the client gets the full 128GB!
