SkyUser orders 2 x New Servers

Posted 02-12-07 at 05:00 PM by NewsreadeR
Today we have ordered 2 brand spanking new servers for use on the SkyUser websites.

Specifications are:

PE860 - Xeon Quad Core 2.40Ghz 2x4MB Cache
2.0GB DDR2-533 Memory
Primary Drive: 160GB Western Digital SATA

Compared to the older specifications on the 2 servers we are replacing these are far more powerful and the end user experience should far exceed what we offer at the moment.

Work starts to transfer all the data and domains as from Monday 3rd December, and so some downtime will be experienced, for which we apologise.

We have made this commitment, so as SkyUser can continue to grow, and a day or so without the sites, is a small price to pay.

Pluto and Jupiter have now been handed over to us and we are setting them up. There will be a degree of downtime over the next 5 days or so

Well so far so good Jupiter has now been upgraded to Raid, should have done at the start, but we didn't even think about it.

Thanks for the kind words.
