1&1’s new array of Dedicated Servers comprises the Business Server I (250GB disks and priced from £69/month+VAT) and Business Server II (500GB disks and priced from £109/month+VAT), both featuring software RAID1, and the Business Server III (750GB disks and priced from £149/month+VAT) and Enterprise Server I (1000GB disks and priced from £199/month+VAT) both equipped with hardware RAID1 technology. 1&1’s new flagship server, the Enterprise Server II (1500GB disk space and priced from £249/month+VAT) now features impressive hardware RAID5 technology.Oliver Mauss, CEO 1&1 Internet said, “Whilst 1&1 is perhaps most well known for its web hosting innovations, we continue to invest much of our resource in pushing the boundaries of Dedicated Server packages. Users’ work can be transformed from having access to enterprise-level technologies such as RAID5, and we will continue to bring such developments within reach of as many users as possible”.
1&1’s latest Value Server range greatly expands upon 1&1’s own concept of providing a low cost server solution for less demanding users. Subject to availability, Value Servers are priced from only £29.99/month+VAT, and boast AMD processors, RAID1 and disk space ranging from 80GB to 400GB. Value Servers are an excellent, cost effective option for uses such as back-up and email servers, game servers, large traffic websites and online forums.
Dedicated Server packages also include free FTP back-up space. Ranging from 50GB to 250GB, this highly redundant high-end back-up facility provides further hard disk space and is accessed directly from the server. For extra security, Linux and Windows servers benefit from an External Firewall based on Cisco hardware. 1&1 server customers now receive a premium Geotrust SSL certificate which can be used to secure web transactions. Furthermore, 1&1 Dedicated Servers are unusual in being powered by electricity from renewable resources like wind, water, or solar energy. 1&1’s use of renewable power and highly efficient hardware and software helps save around 30,000 tons of CO2 per year.
