i am thinking to run a video streaming site like youtube, as known such site will require huge bandwidth and space not to mention good server specs, as a starter i have this two options and would appreciate it if you give me your advice:
I'm curious about the suitability of renting a box that uses the newish dual-core celeron. I plan to use it for the following: static cached cms front page, wordpress company blog, vbulletin customer forum, downloads of our product demos.
We're sort of at the point where we've spent most of our capital on making our game so I'm looking at options that will be reliable and preformant while we're small but will give us a little time to get our act together if we start getting lots of customers before the server just melts down.
So what do you think? Will this cpu with like a gig of ram be sufficient or am I just deluding myself?
dedicate server for a small hosting business, i want to know your opinion, The AMD Athlon X2 3600 with 1gb of ram will be enough? The server will be run centos 4 and Directadmin.
I was talking with a friend and neither of us has used both the atom 330 and the AMD Athlon 64 3500. Has anyone used both of these and did you notice with one performed better?
We are hosting our software system which do calculation and file manipulation. Now we have Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 and would like to get Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 to increase our system performance.
Also we have other choice, get Intel Xeon E5405 Harpertown 2.0GHz to replace two above.
I think it is better to have one server box because one box easy to manage than two. Also Harpertown is much faster than these two together.
I have currently a server with a "Intel Core 2 duo e6640 2.4Ghz".
Now the company I'm at moving to a new data center and offering me a box for the same price with a Intel P3.4.
As I understand I would move from a two core to a single core CPU. In the first move letter they send me, they where saying I would get a CPU plus, plus 1 GB mem more.
I just bought one of these today but not only does it not have hdd's it doesn't have caddies... i can't find them anywhere, where do you guys get missing caddies?
if there is already an equivalent Xeon for the i7 processors?
I mean that for example C2Q Q6600 is equivalent for X3220 if I'm right.
Also, I guess those Servers will cost a lot more, not only because the processor is very costly but it also requires DDR3 RAM which is still nowadays quite expensive...
I recently came across the pricing of Intel Atom powered Dedicated Servers which are as low as $39 (not managed of course) but, the hard disk space and bandwidth bundled with it is tempting.
I currently host a vBulletin Forum of mine of a 512 MB VPS and it performs fine but, I was thinking whether it would be better on an Atom as most are bundled with 2 GB of RAMs.
Anyone can help me out here - whether am thinking in the right direction or am entirely wrong in thinking this?
I have just purchase a Intel Pentium II MB 440 LX DP Server it has UnixWare 2.1.3 on it but didnt not come with a login in name of password is there any way I can get throught this. I have contacted the seller who hasnt a clue..(Bought it from ebay)
Web hosting is a competitive business with thousands of providers in the market. Success as a web hosting provider often comes down to maximizing the number of customers we can support for each additional server added to the infrastructure. To improve our success in this equation, it becomes critically important to find and use the correct machine/severs - all for excellent prices.
So friends I was just guessing an approx. no. of clients I will be able to accommodate per Intel-Nehalem-Server, (depending on the server resource utilization).
while I'm surfing the net i find this site where it has a price list for the parts of a computer and i saw an Intel Xeon processor and it's priced is affordable to me.. Hmm.. My question now is it Ok to buy this processor? because some of my I.T. friends here tell me that it is for Server based processor only and it is not suitable for PC HOME USER..
I've noticed many questions on this site about xeon and quad-core server technology and products. I work at intel and we have a new open online community space where we are inviting IT professionals to come and ask questions to product and technology experts, engage in open dialogue, or read about topics and trends impacting IT and business.
I'm in the market for a new server for colocation, and to save myself some of the headaches I've had with my current one, I'd like it to have a good remote management system, specifically one that operates independently of the operating system, or ideally one that can be accessed even if the machine is powered off. What exactly should I be looking for? I've read a lot about IPMI and Intel vPro and AMT, and I'm not quite clear on how they all fit together.
At the very least, I need something that will let me power-cycle the machine and remotely access its serial console. All the hardware environment monitoring things in IPMI sound useful, but not essential for my purposes. Anyway, it sounds like vPro is part of many (or all?) current Core 2 processors, or am I mistaken? I'm looking mainly at machines with Core 2 Duo or Quad, so can I expect they'd have that built-in, or would I need to specifically request it or look for some particular chipset or CPU?
What is the difference between the Intel 5000V, 5000X, and 5000P? I have done some research on this and depending on the manufacturer they can all be identical. The only difference that I noticed on certain boards was the amounts of memory it can handle. Is that it?
I was just wondering which is better..Should I pick a intel core 2 duo E6750 at 2.66 GHz Bus speed 1333 MHz 4MB L2 or Intel Xeon 3060 Dual Core Conroe(2.4 GHz) bus speed 1006 MHz
I have make an argument for going with Intel chips for some new platforms. These will be used in Xen VPS hosting.
Scanning thru the products of newegg for example, it would seem first that AMD boards (Opterons) are cheaper then Intel's 775 boards. Then the Intel boards also require FB-Dimms which is a bit more expensive then Registered ram.
I know alot of hosters here prefer going with Intel. Is there any other reasons then just following the crowd? I do know Intel chips perform better but does that warrant say 300 more dollars of going with an Intel based solution?
What would be some convincing arguments for going with Intel instead of AMD chips?
