Are servers with better CPU use newer hardware such as RAM, SSD and mainboard?

So, I'm looking for a big server to migrate my old server from OVH. Seems like Im taking the most powerful AX server (https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax161) or maybe the second most powerful Dell Server (https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/dell/dx181) (both with AMD EPYC 7502P, but Im wondering whats the difference between those options. In Dell I can Install 2 more disk than the AX servers, that the only difference, but I read that Dell Server have an special RAID hardware. Is this price efficient? Does the ax161 server comes with any kind of RAID installation?

I want to do a RAID-1 configuration.

Hello, good afternoon. Look, I'm going to be honest, I know that it is not easy, nor is it cheap, but I am willing to learn to be able to create my server.
My idea is to make a server, that people can rent to play minecraft, that is, to create their server. My idea is that through an ftp they can connect to a desktop or something like that and can run their server. I have a pc that I buy to sell, but I couldn't sell it, so I want to use it for this. I know that there are pcs to make a server, but my idea is not to become a super hosting provider for minecraft. I want to go little by little. The pc I have has a ryzen 5 1600af, an asrock a320m-hdv 4.0 motherboard, a 2gb rx 550, a 500w redragon 80 plus bronze power supply, a 240gb pny solid disk, 8gb of ram and a kolink cabinet.
I know I'm going to have to make improvements, but I don't know how. What I know is that I'm going to need a lot of ram, because the minmecraft servers take up a lot. My idea is to put 32gb or 64gb to start with some clients. Also the storage if I will have to enlarge. Tell me if I'm wrong. Then around the source and the processor, I do not know if what it has is fine. So I ask them if the ryzen 5 1600 is going to work.
Well, having said all this, if any component that I have does not work, please tell me. And if I have to change one, tell me. For now my problem is the hardware, since around the software I will investigate a lot about linux and operating systems, to see which is the best and good more things. The software for now is not my doubt

Hello, i'm about to buy new server and like to know what's the better between those two CPUs , will use this server for shared hosting:
Intel Xeon W-2295 vs AMD EPYC 7502P

Both are same price but never use AND for hosting before so i'm confused what to choose

Background
We run a game server hosting company which has been running since 2012. We currently rent roughly 200 dedicated servers from 6 different providers. We currently rent roughly 60 of these dedicated servers from WebNX. We've been with them for just over 7 years and I can safely say that they've been the best datacentre we've used. I know how important reviews are to a company; I feel that we've used WebNX long enough to write an honest review.

Support
We've had our fair share of rubbish support from datacentres in the past. WebNX definitely provides the best support out of all the datacentres we've used. During the past 7 years, I'd say the average response time for a ticket at WebNX was about 10 minutes. We've found the biggest issue with large datacentres is that their support teams are disjointed. This leads to issues which "don't fit the norm" taking a long time to resolve. WebNX is large enough to provide 24/7 365 day support yet small enough to provide genuinely good "straight to the point" support.

Reliability / Uptime
All the datacentres we've used have had some sort of major outage at some point in time. During the 7 years, there have been a couple of network outages at WebNX but the issues have always been resolved quickly along with good communication. Considering the number of servers we have with them, I'd say the uptime is incredibly high.

Hardware
During the past 7 years we've switched our server hardware roughly 4 or 5 times. It's as simple as contacting them letting them know what hardware you like, they provide a reasonably priced quote and in a couple of days, the server is delivered. I'd say on average, broken hardware is resolved in roughly an hour from us opening the ticket.

DDoS Protection
I'd say this is the downside of WebNX. They'll automatically nullroute the IP address if a DDoS attack is detected. The amount of time the IP address is nullrouted depends on how much traffic the attack is sending. It's not really a huge issue for us as we can quickly work out which one of our clients was targeted and then get migrate them over to a DDoS protected IP address. I'm hoping at some stage they'll provide onsite DDoS protection.

Price
They're very reasonably priced considering the support and customisation which they offer.

Network
WebNX's network is top notch. Nothing to complain about at all.

Keep up the great work WebNX! Would be great if you could get another datacentre setup in East Coast USA.

Hello,

I know that servers with EPYC CPUs are very reliable, but are Ryzen servers reliable enough? I've seen there're many Ryzen servers on sale on Hetzner. If I rent a Ryzen server, do I need to reboot it every some days? Thanks a lot.

I recently got a server (AX41-NVMe) with Plesk at Hetzner. Via the DNS console I added the base domain name, where I also want to reach the server, and that works fine.

What I'm running into now is Hetzner telling me to manually add all domain names to the DNS console in order to use them with the server. But that's crazy, isn't it? There are hosting companies that also rent the servers and they cannot manually add every domain name in the DNS console, I think.

I'm not used to it that way either. The server I rent from Leaseweb allows me to simply add a domain name to cPanel and it will be automatically recognized by the worldwide DNS servers.

For me the Hetzner DNS console is not a workable solution in this way. So I thought to solve it with the Plesk extension for Digital Ocean. Works great! But unfortunately no more than 50 domain names are allowed to be added to their DNS. I want to add 100 domains, so this solution doesn't work either.

So my question to you is:

How can I make my domain names reachable, without manually adding them all to Hetzner's DNS console?

Hi

I am tasked to purchase a new server for our network. Basically the idea is to consolidate 2 servers with VMs into one more powerful server.
Current configuration is 2xE5-2680v4 with 128GB ram per server.

I am thinking about something like AMD Epyc 7702P with 256GB of memory, but I am not completely sure about it. Yes, this server has lots of cores, but the base clock speed of this CPU is lower than what we currently have.
I did some research and this CPU seems to be more powerful compared on a sheet, but is it on reality?

We are mainly using those servers for hosting our websites, some big databases. My question is do you think we will see significant performance increase if we do this upgrade, beside saving some money on datacenter costs (consolidating 4U into 1U server)?

Hello,

I have been using 3108 RAID controllers with supermicro servers for a long time.
It works fine.

However, due to the increase in SSD performance, I was always aware that software RAID will probably be better in performance along with some filesystems such as ZFS having additional unique advantages.
So I am finally considering making the leap from hardware RAID to software RAID, especially since NVME drives from what I know don't even have hardware RAID support.

In the past when connecting many drives I noticed I have to setup each signle drive as a RAID 0 through the RAID card, which I think would decrease performance.

So I have to questions regarding best method to connect 24 SSDs for software RAID?

1.
What is the standard way of connecting 24 SATA SSDs to a storage server and use each drive individually and/or setup as software raid?
From what I know a RAID card such as 3108 is usually needed to connect so many drives to the mainboard.

2.
How does 24 nvme drives work in Storage servers that support it? Does mainboard have shared PCIe lanes that are connected with the nvme drives?

Thank you.

Customer support said they are proving a dedicated server with AMD EPYC 7501 Processors and We will get only 2 cores But AMD EPYC 7501 Processors 32 cores

If anyone using their dedicated server please help me find help me about this issue

Looking to rent some dedicated storage servers with the following specs

- 4 servers
- 12-18 cores
- 64* or 128gb ram
- 80-100TB - SATA HDD/each + OS disks 250-500SSD
- 5 to 10gbps uplink unmetered
- Location [US] [EU] - [any State/City]

We would need an internal network connecting all these systems together @ 5-10gbps. Also, we would likely be looking to upgrade our external bandwidth over time.

[contract time] 2+ years / paid monthly

if anyone knows good providers please <<post here>>
