Questions about Dedicated Servers? Our FAQs provide answers to the most common queries. You can also contact our expert support team at any time.
What is a Dedicated Server?
Dedicated server hosting gives you full power and total control over your server infrastructure. Built on the latest technology with enterprise-grade hardware, Dedicated Servers give your projects the highest levels of performance. Pick from the latest Intel Xeon processors and choose the resource levels for your project's demands, and with root access you have free choice of Windows and Linux operating systems.
How do I use a Dedicated Server?
A Dedicated Server is just like having your own on-premises hardware in an office or server room. You can easily log in as an administrator, install software and manage data. If you just want to get going quickly with standard functions like hosting websites or email, it’s simple to add a server management tool like Plesk Obsidian.
Which Dedicated Server should I choose?
If your projects are more resource-demanding, you should choose a Dedicated Server with a more powerful processor and higher levels of RAM. Our server specialists will be happy to advise you on the ideal technical specifications for your project.
Can I run Magento on a Dedicated Server?
Performance is critical for an ecommerce business, and because of the resource-intensive nature, a Dedicated Server is perfect for Magento Hosting.

What kind of security measures are in place on Fasthosts Dedicated Servers?
Our state-of-the-art UK data centres are protected by the latest innovations in both physical and digital security, and our systems provide advanced protection against DDoS attacks.
What’s the difference between Linux and Windows?
Your choice of server operating system will most likely come down to which tools you prefer to use. For example, if you want to build websites with WordPress or you need to use advanced scripting like Ruby or Python, Linux is usually the best option. But if your project requires ASP.NET or other Microsoft-based technologies, you should probably select Windows.
What is ECC RAM?
ECC stands for error-correcting code. ECC RAM is a specialised type of memory that fixes common errors that can potentially lead to corrupted data or system crashes. This makes ECC RAM an excellent choice for servers that run business-critical applications.
What’s the difference between HDD, SSD and NVMe storage?
Hard disk drives, or HDDs, are traditional storage devices that use spinning disks to house data. Solid-state drives, or SSDs, store data on microchips instead, so they can load that data much quicker. NVMe stands for Non-Volatile Memory Express, and is the latest, fastest technology that SSDs use to access data. If you need faster data read and write speeds, you should choose SSD storage, perhaps with NVMe for the very best performance. If, however, overall data capacity is a higher priority, an HDD server can still offer outstanding performance and value.
What is RAID storage?
RAID stands for redundant array of independent disks. It’s a technology that distributes data across multiple storage devices to provide improved reliability. RAID 1 is a commonly implemented RAID level that mirrors data across two separate storage drives to ensure redundancy – so if one disk fails, the data remains available. Software RAID uses the host operating system to manage the RAID process, while hardware RAID uses its own dedicated hardware.
