Server upgrade complete!

Posted on June 22, 2015 in Uncategorized

Sorry about the website down-time last week, but it was time to upgrade my server.  This site is now sitting on a quad-core 3.3Ghz dedicated server with 16GB of ram, a 500GB primary drive and a 120GB solid-state (SSD) secondary drive.  We also now have a shared hosting satellite account for backups and offsite up-time monitoring.  You should see a significant bump in performance now as compared to the old server because the core OS is running on the SSD, which is about 10x faster than a standard hard disk. For comparison, note that PartyUtah.com (when I owned it) was hosted on a dual-core 2.4ghz dedicated server with twin 250GB drives and 8GB of ram, so Xtagged.co now literally has more horsepower than UtahRaves.com had at it’s peak!  Fun times.
