Enterprise dedicated servers
Two Xeons on an HPE ProLiant blade, registered ECC memory to a terabyte, a RAID controller with a flash-backed cache, hot-plug drives, and an iLO console that answers when the operating system does not. Racked in five cities. Handed over in about thirty minutes. A failed part replaced within four hours, in writing. Month to month, and the figure does not move.
Previous-generation hardware, priced as such. The class of machine built to run continuously, not the newest silicon. Why that is the point.

What the word means here
Memory that corrects its own errors, and a board that will not boot with any other kind. A RAID controller with a flash-backed cache, so an acknowledged write survives a power cut. Drives that come out of the front while the system carries on. A management processor with its own port, so the console is there when the kernel is not. An enclosure with six power supplies and ten fans, fed from two feeds.
That is what we rack: HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9 blades on the Xeon E5 line, Gen10 on the Xeon Scalable line, with Dell and Supermicro rack units where somebody needed one. Previous generations, priced as previous generations, every one under the same four-hour hardware guarantee as the newest machine in the building. When you were younger you wanted the latest processor; the machine you want running your business is the one nobody notices.
A year, in five shifts
Day 0 · 14:07
The order form prices the exact build; nothing is a menu. A matching machine on the shelf is yours in about thirty minutes after the order clears review. One that is not is assembled to your specification in four to twenty-four hours, at the same price. Either way it arrives reinstalled with the operating system you chose from thirty-three, root or Administrator in your inbox; the iLO console is published from your dashboard the minute you add a console login.
Week 1
Single tenant means both sockets, every DIMM, the RAID card and the port are yours. Bring your own ISO through iLO's virtual media if the thirty-three are not enough. Hypervisor hosts are the largest group of these machines; databases and application back ends come next. 128 GB is the size most of them chose.
Month 7 · Tuesday · 02:14
RAID 1 on the Smart Array keeps serving from the surviving disk. You tell us by chat or phone; the service level agreement guarantees the replacement fitted within four hours of that message, and the ladder past four hours credits your month from 10% to 100%. The new disk goes into the front of the running blade, the array rebuilds, and the only record is a line in the iLO log.
Month 9
Sixteen DIMM slots and a form that starts you at 32 GB mean the memory can grow eight times over in the slot you already have. The second processor, more drives, a larger controller, a faster port: added to this machine, on this address. No migration window, no rebuild, no new IP to tell anybody about.
Year 3
Month to month with no term, and the figure on the order page is the figure on every invoice until you change the build. There is no renewal step-up because there is no renewal. When two sockets stop being enough, four sockets go to 2 TB and EPYC puts 64 cores in each of two.
Size the machine
Every option below is read from the same catalogue the order form bills from, and the figure is confirmed by the quote engine before it is printed. It is an estimate for one build in one city; the order page is the quote.
The line that carries it
Reading the catalogue…
Monthly, month to month, in the city chosen. Confirmed by the quote engine; the order page is the quote.
Configure this buildPrices in US dollars; Amsterdam and Bucharest bill the same numeral in euros. Card, PayPal, bank transfer and crypto. No setup charge on these lines.
Four builds, priced by the order form
Quoted by the same engine the checkout uses, on 3 September 2026, in New York with the included 1 Gbps port, one IPv4, RAID 1 and Ubuntu. Amsterdam and Bucharest bill the same numeral in euros. Nothing here depends on what is racked today: a build not on the shelf is assembled to this specification in 4 to 24 hours at the same price.

It exists for the software that needs Ice Lake or Sapphire Rapids instructions; for everything else the two lines above do the same work for a third of the money. Every part on every line is priced on the build-to-order page.
What the shift needs
From our own account records, 3 September 2026. Each card names the build that group actually runs, with the figure the order engine gives it in New York.
The largest group. Two sockets for threads, 128 GB as the sensible middle, a mirrored SSD pair for boot and guests. Proxmox VE 9 at no charge, VMware vSphere 7 and 8 on the form. Up to eight public IPv4 for the guests on the Xeon Scalable line.
2 × Gold 6130 · 128 GB · 2 × 960 GB SSD · $192.07
Memory for the working set, ECC so a flipped bit is corrected rather than committed, a controller cache that lets writes be acknowledged safely. The 24-bay controller takes RAID 10 across as many drives as the data needs.
2 × Gold 6230 · 256 GB · 2 × 1.92 TB SSD · $301.07
A SaaS API, a game back end, a broadcaster's origin, a VPN exit. Single tenant means the latency profile is yours; unmetered means the traffic bill is a port speed, decided once. One in ten of these runs 10 Gbps.
2 × E5-2650L v4 · 128 GB · 2 × 960 GB SSD · $178.77
Twelve or twenty-four bays, RAID 6, drives to 15.36 TB apiece, on a machine that is not the newest because the disks set the pace. Warm standby and off-site copies live here too.
2 × E5-2630L v3 · 64 GB · 12-bay controller · from $111.77 + drives
Staging that must mirror production, because faster hardware lies about what production will do. Runners that want cores at a flat price. Sixteen cores and 64 GB is the cheapest two-socket machine we make.
2 × E5-2630L v3 · 64 GB · 2 × 480 GB SSD · $111.77
A requirements document with a shape not on this page: a storage server with ten 16 TB drives, a nested-ESXi lab, fourteen addresses from day one. Thirty minutes with an engineer settles it faster than a form.
The other end of the chat
Phone and live chat around the clock, included with every machine, staffed by the engineers who built it. The machine is unmanaged: you own the operating system and everything on it, we own everything under it, and the line between the two is written into the service level agreement rather than left to a support tier.
Reference
The specification is raw material, not the argument, so it lives here at the foot where a requirements document can check it. Every cell is the order catalogue as read on 3 September 2026.

The shelf, this minute
A racked machine is handed over in about 30 minutes. If the city you want shows none, the build is assembled to your specification in 4 to 24 hours at the same price; the page reads the same either way. Every machine on the shelf, with its discount.
