New and Improved Dedicated Server Line

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

We have made the decision to rework our dedicated server line from the bottom up. We have not been satisfied with the quality of servers from our current datacenter (HostNOC/BurstNET) in terms of hardware quality and their network's uptime. As a result, we will no longer be utilizing their products/datacenter for new servers purchased today and thereafter. However, any current dedicated server clients will still remain under the BurstNET datacenter as our server line and pricing has changed significantly from the products previously available. Although we will allow any current client to purchase a new server and be migrated to the new datacenter if any of the new products interest you.

So without further ado, here are the new servers:

  • Xeon Dual Core 3110
    • 500GB Seagate SATA 7200RPM
    • 4GB DDR2 RAM
    • 10TB Monthly Bandwidth Allocation
    • 100Mbps Uplink Port
    • 5 Static IP Addresses
    • $125/Monthly
  • Intel Core2Quad Q9550
    • 500GB Seagate SATA 7200RPM
    • 4GB DDR2 RAM
    • 10TB Monthly Bandwidth Allocation
    • 100Mbps Uplink Port
    • 5 Static IP Addresses
    • $160/Monthly
  • Intel Nehalem Xeon 5520
    • 1TB Seagate SATA 7200RPM
    • 12GB DDR2 RAM
    • 10TB Monthly Bandwidth Allocation
    • 100Mbps Uplink Port
    • 5 Static IP Addresses
    • $240/Monthly

All servers will be located in two different datacenters in the Chicagoland area. DC1 features redundant N+1 power, HVAC, and top-of-the-line networking facilities. DC2 features ultra-redundant power, HVAC, and networking systems with no single point of failure. The building features over 200,000 square feet of raised-floor computing space; SingleHop currently has 10,000 Sqft of computing space in this location.

Celebrating 4 years of service

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

This past October Holdfire celebrated it's 4th birthday. While we were a little late on celebrating another year of business, we did manage to launch our new website. Along with our new website, we have decided to retire one of our shared plans and on of our reseller plans.

This decision was based on the lack of interest in the two plans removed as well as simplifying our selection for potential clients. While more options are great to have sometimes it can be too confusing--we're going to keep it simple! And since we removed two plans we decided to "upgrade" the remaining packages with more disk space or bandwidth (or both.)

We also expanded in other areas and now offer the ability to purchase virtual private servers and dedicated servers. Each have three plans to chose from and give you the ability to customize them based on your needs. On either of the servers you can select your operating system, control panel and add the option for fully managed support. However, with our dedicated servers while there is a main setup, you can opt to add extra harddrives in any RAID configuration, order extra IP blocks, upgrade/downgrade your main harddrive, and of course opt for other add-ons available.

You may see some bugs here and there with our website and other products (forum, blog, support area) but we're trying to squash them as we see them. If there's something we've missed, send an email or support ticket letting us know--it's greatly appreciated!
