Quality hardware
Ever since our company was founded, we have been testing different manufacturers of hardware in terms of performance and service life. Especially with hard drives, we have the experience that to well-behaved hard drives usually have only a small life expectancy in continuous operation and thus it often leads to interference and possibly data loss. For this reason, we only use Western-Digital premium Harddisks with our Root-Server products. Our customers can choose between different Harddisks when ordering. By default, we recommend using WD Red or WD SE hard drives.

New Server
Our customers do not receive any already used server hardware without their knowledge. We only rent the used server systems as remant dedicated server or explicitly point to used rootserver hardware. Every new server ordered through our website is completely factory-fresh hardware that has not been used before. This procedure should ensure that as few hardware defects as possible occur within the first months after the server has been deployed.

Operating Systems
To keep our customers up to date with the latest software, our root server installation images are always kept up to date. So are recent kernel versions or operating system versions such. CentOS 7, Debian 8 or Ubuntu 14.04 always available in the Rootserver for installation within a very short time. The Operating Systems can be installed on the server system using a VNC installation, over SSH installation or automated by the software installer. The automated installation method also includes the automatic configuration of a software RAID 1. br> br> We offer the operating system Windows Server Standard and Windows Server Datacenter as a flexible VNC installation. With the help of the VNC installation, e.g. individual partitions are performed freely.
