Basic

This server is ideal for those with a few large websites that aren't that memory intensive. Generally even the slowest CPU is more than capable for most websites. A server would generally need more RAM before it needs a CPU upgrade.

Standard

Having two CPU cores on a state of the art processor setup will enable this server to multitask much easier with anything CPU intensive. An example of when this would be very useful is when a site's logs are being processed for stats on the server and webpages are still being accesed. Websites that are bandwidth intensive will have more room to grow with 1,500 GB of data transfer with the Standard server setup.

Elite

Two Intel Xeon processors running at 2.4 Ghz are great for multitasking, and the 4GB of RAM will really help on memory intensive sites or sites with large databases. The two 80 GB drives can be set up so the primary drive does an automatic daily backup to the secondary drive which ensures that your sites' data is still available in case a drive were to fail or server information gets lost or deleted.

Honestly though, although some clients prefer this tested CPU, we recommend the standard dedicated server.s CPU power with the Dual Core setup as every benchmark show it to outperform the Elite.s Dual Xeons. Get this server if your script is memory intensive. If it.s not, save the money and go with the Standard.

Pro

Don't let the Quad-Core 3210 Xeon (Kentfield) name confuse you. The Intel Xeon 3210 cpu is actually a Quad cpu core processor capable of multitasking and is the perfect chip for servers with heavy traffic.

This server might be the most expensive, but it's by far our least profitable, and the best deal in terms reliability, performance, and redundancy.

If you are looking to host many sites, with the best possible uptime. Or if you'd like to use this as a pure work horse this is the server you want!
