Ping latency

Real measurements performed from our dedicated servers in Umeå, northern Sweden.

Fast connection & lots of traffic

1Gbit/s with 100TB of traffic per month is included in our dedicated servers. Connection to the internet is via our AS215273.

Short contract periods

Our standard dedicated servers can be chosen to pay month to month and have no notice period. We believe that the business should be neat, simple and flexible.

IPv4 & IPv6

Support for both IPv4 and IPv6. A /30 IPv4 network and a /64 IPv6 network are included. More addresses, entire networks and Bring Your Own IP are available as options.

Customer login for managing servers

Via our customer panel you can access all your dedicated servers, can see traffic, perform OS reloads to install operating systems, make settings for RAID, hardware reboots and more.

Replacement of defective hardware

If a fan, disk, power supply or other hardware breaks, we replace it free of charge.

Note, we are not responsible for recovering lost data from disks. For important data, we always recommend a RAID set together with saving an external backup in another place.

Monitoring network

We maintain and monitor our own network. With access to the internet via our own AS number 215273.

Support via e-mail

Ordinary support via e-mail during Swedish office hours.

Hardware, electricity and cooling affect the price of a dedicated server

Our servers are located in Umeå, northern Sweden, which is a strategically good location for servers. All our electricity comes from local hydropower, solar power and wind power. The electricity is cheap and 100% renewable.

The Norrland climate is to our advantage when we cool our servers, since it is often cool outside, it is cheap to cool the server hall.

The server hall is equipped with

SSD & NVMe in dedicated servers

All our servers support SSD model disks. The most common model is SSD with SATA connection, but we also offer servers with SAS-SSD and NVMe-SSD to meet different performance needs. With SSDs, you not only get faster speeds and better performance, but also higher reliability compared to traditional spinning hard drives.

When SSD is the best choice

Solid State Drives (SSDs) in dedicated servers have several advantages that make them the best choice in many situations. First, SSDs are significantly faster than spinning hard drives. This means faster boot times, shorter application load times and faster data transfer speeds. For applications that require high performance and fast access to data, SSDs are the obvious choice.

Another important benefit of SSD drives is their durability and reliability. Because SSDs have no moving parts, they are less likely to break due to physical shock or wear and tear over time. This makes them ideal for environments where high reliability is essential.

When spinning hard drives are appropriate

Despite the benefits of SSDs, there are times when traditional spinning hard drives are still a good choice. Spinning hard drives offer greater storage capacity at a lower cost, which can be important for businesses with large amounts of data that don't need fast access. When the server supports 3.5″ LFF (Large Form Factor) drives, spinning hard drives can be a cost-effective way to store large volumes of data.

Choices and flexibility

We at Hexabyte.se understand that different companies have different needs when it comes to storage. That's why we offer a wide range of storage solutions, including both SSD and spinning hard drives. Whether you need quick access to critical data or large storage capacity for archiving, we have a solution to suit your needs.

By offering support for different types of SSD drives, including SATA, SAS and NVMe, we can ensure our customers get the best performance and reliability for their specific applications.

FAQ

When you rent a dedicated server, you rent the entire hardware and get full access to it.

Your operating system is installed directly on the machine without any hypervisor running underneath.

Yes, a dedicated server is much better suited than a VPS for running your own virtualization. This is because it is a bare metal and you do not need nested virtualizations.

It's fine to run VMware, Proxmox, LXD/LXC and more.

There are some disadvantages, or things that might be good to keep in mind when it comes to dedicated servers. Some of them are:

  • Retrofitting RAM or other components requires service windows with downtime.
  • Extending the disk on which the operating system resides afterwards can require downtime and be complicated, choose a size that you know will be enough.

Then we replace it as quickly as we can. We are responsible for ensuring that your server has working components such as fans, disks, RAID cards, RAM, CPU, power supplies and more.

Some components may require downtime when replacing.

You yourself are responsible for the data on your disks and backup of the data. We strongly recommend taking advantage of RAID1 available on all dedicated servers. (NVMe disks are connected directly to the CPU and need RAID set up in the operating system with e.g. mdadm or zfs) 

We only use enterprise grade disks that are made to be in servers and input 24/7.
