Our semi-dedicated VPS plans run on the same hardware as our
Xeon dedicated servers (two quad
core Harpertown Xeon processors, 8 cores total).
Your VPS will be setup on a machine with up to 7 other users. Those VPSs will each get a share of the host server resources (CPU, memory, disk IO, bandwidth, etc).
These plans are ideal when you need to have lots of memory, low CPU and disk IO contention and the safety of regular, automated full filesystem backups.
Be green. Most people do not need the all the resources of a dedicated server. By sharing a server with other users you reduce the overall power usage. Over a year, compared to a dedicated server, a semi-Dedicated servers will save a metric tonne of CO2 emissions or the equivalent of 24 trees.

A VPS-on-dedicated server is a powerful and flexible hosting option. You get the convenience and flexibility of a VPS but the power and predicable performance of a classic dedicated server.
We have some great pricing on selected servers. See our VPS-on-dedicated server page for details.
We have two main server types at the Dallas data center. Single CPU servers (2007 Core 2 Duo, 2008 Core 2 Quad, 2009 Nehalem CPUs, 2011 Sandy Bridge CPUs) and dual CPU servers (2007 Harpertown, 2009 Nehalem and 2010 Westmere Xeon CPUs).

Looking for the fastest dual CPUs possible? Intel's released the Nehalem CPUs in March 2009. These CPUs have been setting new performance benchmarks and getting rave reviews.
Guru tech site Anandtech says:
[Nehalem CPUs have] created a giant tsunami in the server world. The Xeon 5570 doubles the performance of its predecessor in applications that matter to more than 80% of the server market. With native quad-core, fast interconnects between the CPUs, a shared L3 cache that allows faster cache coherency synchronization, and an integrated memory controller. For the IT professional in these difficult economic times, the new generation of server CPUs are an excellent investment.
The Nehalem servers come with:
Looking for a powerful workhorse? It is hard to go past a Core 2 Duo/Quad server. They consume very little power, so they run cool and reliable. And benchmarks on sites like Anandtech and TomsHardware put their performance ahead of any of the previous Pentium 'D' servers, as well as almost all AMD CPUs.
The servers are custom built for us by the great guys over at rackmountsetc and have the following spec:
For great performance, try one of our dual Xeon servers. They have specs up to:
For the ultimate performance, you cannot go past our 72GB behemoth server:
We happen to use this same quad core Xeon server type for hosting our VPS offerings.
Note: exact hardware specs are correct at time of writing, but may vary slightly over time.
Got a disk IO intensive application? e.g. a busy database? Each of our Dallas-based dedicated servers comes with Intel SSD and Velociraptor 10K RPM disks. The Intel SSDs are one of the mostly highly regarded SSD's on the market. And are perfect for lowering disk response times and maxing out your read/write rates.
At the London data center we use we are able to offer fast servers with generous data transfer allowances in a European location.
If you are after a high end dual proc server with 48GB+ or memory or 'exotic' SSD or SAS or Velociraptor disks, then contact us for a custom quote.

Recommend our service to a friend or colleague. Have them mention your name and this offer on the order confirmation page. We will give you a $15 hosting credit when they sign up.
A lot of the tools and services we provide are based on open source projects. We try to give something back to that community. If you are an open source developer, tell us about your project when you order and ask for an open source developer discount.
You can prepay your hosting if you wish. Just let us know when you wish to do that. If you prepay 12 months we will add an extra month for no extra cost on our VPS plans. If you already host with us, just pop in a support ticket and tell us you wish to prepay for 12 months. If you are about to put in a new order, just tell us you wish to prepay for 12 months on the order confirmation page.
If you have a VPS with us and then order another VPS we will automatically drop $10 from the VPS setup fee and discount the monthly fee by 10%. This offer does not apply to dedicated servers.
