Posted by Jay H, 10-01-2012, 03:54 PM NORMAN, OK October 1, 2012 Web Hosting Provider GeekStorage (www.geekstorage.com) announced on Monday that it has launched a new line of Virtual Private Servers (VPS), using Solid State Drive (SSD) storage.
Matt Eli, a Head Geek of the company, stated We have been looking forward to launching these new SSD-based VPS and have been testing their performance for the last couple of months. The resource bottleneck with VPS hosting has been the I/O throughput limitations when dealing with typical SATA and SAS hard drives. With the launch of these new VPS featuring Samsung 830 SSDs in RAID 10, our customers will be able to benefit by not being constrained by the I/O limitations of regular hard drives. Were talking 500% more IOPS than regular hard drives.
The company expects these new SSD VPS to be extremely popular given their affordable price point. We have leveraged our relationships with vendors and capitalized on our past experiences to be able to offer these new SSD VPS at affordable prices. Our regular SAS-based VPS Hosting has been sold out off and on for over a month and we expect sales of these new SSD VPS to perform equally as well, stated Eli.
