I’m looking at the P265DS totalcontrol server, but as i havent had an unmanaged server before i have a few questions to ask before ordering.

When i click the “Buy Now” button at the P265DS it show different setup options which i would like to ask about…

1.
If i select the “SCSI Hardware RAID” from the Drive Controller dropdown menu, will the server be setup as SCSI RAID and run that way ? (prolly quite obvious, just had to ask)

2.
What does “Urchin 300 profiles” mean ?
I’m only gonna run 1 or 2, maybe 3, of my own websites on the server, does the “300 profiles” mean that it would support 300 websites ?

3.
What does “Network Backup: 40GB” mean ?
What is “network backup” ?, and is it 40GB daily backup ? and where does it get backed up ?
I dont expect to go above 40GB data total on the server, all websites included, would such a 40GB Network backup everything then ? and again, to where ?

4.
About “Database”, im gonna be using MySQL on the server, do i have to choose it from the dropdown menu to be able to use it, or can i just leave it blank and install the MySQL version i need myself.
Does it just mean you would install it, or is the option needed if i’m gonna use MySQL, eventhough i instal it myself ?

Discuss this at planet forums or get a dedicated server from theplanet.com for $50 only
