Slowly but surely the whole world is recognizing the benefit of SSD use – and as that happens we’re seeing more and more hosting companies make use of SSD’s throughout their product lines. Eleven2 has recently joined the ranks of SSD-powered hosting companies as they roll out their brand new 100% SSD shared hosting product line. I should make a point here. Eleven2 has been using SSD’s in their shared hosting lineup for a while now through the use of SSD acceleration, however this is 100% pure SSD servers we’re talking about here.

We spent some time in Research and Development to decide which SSD’s to use, along with which RAID cards would be controlling them. There were no expenses spared here, everything we’re running is Enterprise ready and Wow, it’s fast!

Eleven2 is using 12gb/s, state-of-the-art Avago RAID cards with Samsung Enterprise SSD drives. To make sure speeds never slow down, and reliability is at its maximum, Eleven2 configured their array in a RAID10, and are utilizing Over-Provisioning. The drive sequential read speeds exceed 1,000 MB/s which should be more than enough for any website you’re running.

Eleven2’s SSD hosting is optimized for dynamic applications. When using a dynamic application such as WordPress you will see the biggest gains on SSD hosting. Most of today’s popular scripts are heavy database users. Database queries are quick reads and writes of data, and this is where SSD’s shine. Faster reads and writes translates into faster page loading times.

All SSD plans include cPanel, free account transfer, multiple daily backups, the ability to buy and autoinstall SSL certificates instantly, and industry leading 24/7/365 support. To kickoff the launch, Eleven2 has given us a new coupon code good for 50% off any of the new SSD hosting plans!
