In late spring, we launched a batch of new DELL servers. New generation servers are characterized by increased performance, low power consumption and heat dissipation. In addition, the servers are very compact, which allows you to place more servers in one rack.
In the few months that have passed since the introduction, we were convinced of the excellent work of the new equipment and now we want to tell you more about the servers.
It is used in Rusonix as the main server for rental (dedicated).
Used configuration:
R210 is the most cheapened model, but not to the detriment of quality: the server is missing everything superfluous, there are no "tricks". But there is everything you need for a long and stable operation.
The server is small-sized, but powerful: one processor on four cores, a large cache, a lot of memory.
The cooling system is well thought out, allowing very efficient cooling of even such a small case.
The SATA interface allows you to install up to two large disks, the RAID controller operates in mirroring mode.
There is DRAC6 Enterprise (built-in KVM), which allows you to have constant remote access to the server, physically reboot, turn on / off the server, change BIOS settings, reinstall OS, etc., without resorting to the services of data center technical personnel.
It is used to service virtual (shared) hosting and VPS-DDS tariffs. In addition, we rent such servers for hosting resource-intensive sites and services.
Used configuration:
R610 is the top DELL model in the class of 1U servers.
Two processors, eight cores + hyper threading technology give up to sixteen processor threads.
Two hot-swappable power supplies, both of which allow you to control the power consumption of the network.
Six 2.5 "disks with SAS interface, PERC 6i RAID controller, in RAID10 mode - provide a large amount of disk space and a very high disk array speed.
DRAC6 Enterprise (KVM) is installed for complete remote server management.
On the front panel of the server there is an indicator in the form of a running line that allows you to visually monitor the status of the server. In case of failure of any components, the server’s self-monitoring system will switch the color of the indicator from blue to yellow and give information about the problem to it. In an emergency, this will immediately diagnose the problem and quickly replace the failed server part.
Four gigabit built-in network cards make it possible to physically switch the server to different networks, or, if necessary, increase the connection bandwidth on it several times.
1. General view of the rack 2. We get one of the R610 servers 3. Open it, look :) 4. A different angle, it’s better to see how the cooling system of the server is built. We are very pleased with the results of the introduction of new servers. Some of the servers went to replace obsolete equipment, the rest are used to accommodate new customers. Thanks to them, we were able to launch a new line of VPS and DDS tariffs with increased resources and lower prices. Thanks for attention!
