For an instance, Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550. Its 4 cores are driving up the top notch performance. This is really an ideal processor to encode many videos or music. For those who are seeking for game servers, the choice between Q9550 and E8400 is less clear. The frequency of the E8400 (2 cores) is 3GHZ per core against the Q9550′s (4 cores) 2.83 GHz. However, the games who do not take advantage on two core will become faster on dual core.

Even though, Intel Core2 Quad Q9550 2.83 GHz is just an upgraded version of Core 2 Quad Q9400 2.66 GHz. The noticeable differences are frequency and CPU Cache. The Q9550 processor based on Yorkfield chip, and it has 12 MB of L2 cache. On the other hand Q9400 has 6 MB L2 cache. Moreover, Q9550 offers better quality, however, the price ratio is higher than its predecessor.

For your information, BODHost offers both, Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 and Intel Core2 Quad Q9550 dedicated servers. The prices are clearly not the same, but surprisingly many e-commerce stores are regularly showing their interest in these servers.

Undoubtedly, the Q9400 and Q9550 are the most interesting and popular among online business entrepreneurs. So if you are searching a Quad Core Dedicated Server at a reasonable price, you probably know better than me what you have to do …

These servers can give a whole new portfolio to your business. In addition, servers are available in several formats such as towers, blades, rack mount, workstations, new storage system Equalogic, software and services, etc …

Furthermore, the Dell PowerEdge M series blade servers are basically designed around the Intel Xeon 5500, according to Dell, these servers provide an optimal level of virtualization, easy to use system administration, etc …

With these systems, the web hosting provider can claim the highest level of performance per watt on their dedicated servers.

By providing an integrated administration with a single access point, Dell also claimed that the architecture of their servers offers a purchase price lower than their competitors (specially HP).

Blade Servers -

Dell’s blade servers are mostly popular for the faster deployment than HP and IBM Blade Servers. Additionally, Dell has developed a function ImageDirect, which helps to simplify administration of the image servers and facilitate their development. Companies can create images of servers and ask them to be implemented during during the manufacturing of the server in the factory.

This avoids time consuming manual configuration. Hence, the deployment times are shortened and the time span to operate such servers decreased by almost 45%. The device allows to quickly stabilize such systems during the operation.

Workstations -

Moreover, dell precision workstations are also designed around Intel Xeon 5500 microprocessor, they are characterized by advanced administrative capacity and thermal characteristics.

The new family includes the Dell Precision T7500, T5500 and T3500 tower. These stations were designed for technical applications, media industries, bio sciences etc… All these servers feature the Energy Star 5.0 certification.

Side Software –

The Dell Management Console (DMC), which is borrowed from Altiris and Symantec aims to bring a single point environment to entire administration systems for all computing.

Storage System -

EquaLogic PS6000 storage system provides higher level performance, advanced virtualization abilities and more value to your business. It integrates seamlessly into a storage area network SAN Equalogic to form a virtualized storage.

Dell includes the SAN HeadQuarters solution, which is a centralized dashboard for monitoring performance and the different events of dozens of PS systems, up to 10 PB (petabytes) of storage capacity in a network.

Finally, Dell offers the data center consulting services as well. It allows to evaluate performance of the data center, costs of materials, virtualization of servers, the optimization of backup and restoration.

Many wizards simplify the configuration of new server roles and features. IT pros can manage most of these tasks from the command line, via servermanagercmd.exe. Since we are talking about the command line, Windows Server 2008 R2 comes with Windows PowerShell 2.0 enabled by default, which is a good thing. With PowerShell management environment, you can manage 500 servers as easily as if there were only five.

Disks with Windows Dedicated Server Hosting

If you need to control disk usage on all these servers, some simple PowerShell commands are enough. There is no need to use scripts. You connect to remote computers via WinRM and you avoid the endless headaches of configuring firewall with WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). But do not panic, WMI is still present and even easier to use in Windows PowerShell. You can harness the wealth of management information using WMI management features remote WinRM. PowerShell 2.0 will revolutionize your approach to the administration and increase your efficiency.

Windows Server 2008 R2 offers fantastic tools, monitor performance and reliability (Reliability and Performance Monitor). Within minutes, you can get a complete graphical view of your dedicated server and you do not need to go fishing information through a variety of management tools. In the server manager, under Diagnostics, select System Resource Manager (Windows System Resource Manager). It is possible to connect to the local server or remote server. Resource monitor displays an updated status in real time.

The monitor is configurable with standard performance counters of multiple machines. You can also access the Performance tab and run a predefined set of data collection. This approach is convenient to get started and prepare for the creation of their own data sets. After data collection, Windows Server 2008 R2 generates a report containing all relevant information. I personally have never met a simple solution to generate reports of valuable performance and usage.

Among its many features, Windows Server 2008 R2 allows you to define criteria to plan events and windows collection of performance data. And do not think you need to connect to a Windows Server 2008 R2.

In addition you can install Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 and manage all Windows machines 2003, 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 without leaving your desk.
