Sycom Terra Server Range
These are the highest specification servers Sycom have ever built including dual Athlon 2800+ MP processors, a heavy duty 460w power source, a full RAID 5 hard drive system providing at least 360GB of totally resilient usable storage with each drive individually housed in a removable separately cooled environment with complete ' hot swap ' capability in the event of disk failure combined with the most comprehensive total cooling system we have ever built, for the ultimate in reliability.   See a picture of a built unit below.

Sycom have been building custom Windows servers since 1996 and have many satisfied customers still using original kit supplied back then.  We have bought the components for these servers and have several case types in stock, so you can choose either a 4U 19" Rackmount case or choose to have the server housed in our rugged Deluxe Tower case at a significantly reduced price.

The entire Terra range is designed from the ground up against two criterion, rugged durability and the best possible processing power for the money. We also build with longevity in mind and all Sycom servers are fully upgradeable, ensuring you are able to maximise the return on your investment.  Nowadays with the Intel Pentium and Xeon processor range being comprehensively outgunned and out-priced we have switched entirely to the Multi-Processor Athlon MP range which we find give our users unbelievable bang for the buck, but should Intel steal back the performance crown in the future with our built in upgradeability promise you will be able to upgrade your server to use the latest processor technology.  We are also currently evaluating the AMD Opteron processors and hope to have a 64 bit server built around this amazing chip out soon.  If you have any questions don't hesitate in contacting us for further information, ask to speak with one of our engineering team on 0118 9797979 or email us on support@sycom.net .

Terra-Power Twice the power – Half the price
Terra-Power is Sycom Technology's most impressive server to date, featuring dual 32bit or 64bit processors, 2GB or more of DDR RAM and offering true RAID 5 multi disk performance. This speed, resiliency and at least a third of a terabyte usable disk space, all for the price of our competitors RAID drive sub system, is causing quite a storm. The Sycom Terra-Power Server range gives you unbelievable speed and performance coupled with the reliability and rugged build quality at a price you've been waiting for - all with unparalleled upgradeability ensuring you the best possible Return On Investment for years to come.

Custom Server Build
In addition to providing quality mass market server solutions from established names such as HP and Dell, Sycom will listen to your requirements and build you a custom server, offering previously impossible levels of performance for the price. But not content with shattering the price performance barrier, Sycom have specified the Terra-Power range to offer the greatest level of resiliency available today. The Sycom Terra-Power server range comes in a variety of form factors from 2u and 4u 19” Rack Mount to fully resilient stand alone full towers.

Why Sycom Terra-Power Servers?
Our customers have always demanded the very best from Sycom and we have the testimonials to prove we can deliver. Now, for our customers most demanding networks, those that require the ultimate in flexible server provision, Sycom can provide a fully custom specified and built range of servers. The Sycom Terra-Power range will give years of unparalleled reliability with performance to match. We have Sycom built servers provided and installed with customers over six years ago still providing daily service today. But you want the real reason why our Terra-Power servers will offer you the performance and reliability you require? After all any company can choose to adopt and incorporate leading edge technology, why Sycom's solution? Because of one simple factor few other manufacturers can offer – Total Support. Sycom is principally a support company and we are not going to build anything that causes US problems when supporting it in years to come.

Performance – Terra-Power Servers will provide the power, flexibility and value for money you require because of the technology incorporated. Sycom have not just swallowed vast sums of chip giant marketing money and regurgitated the same boxes as our competitors. All Terra-Power severs are dual processor based with full RAID 5 disks. Our 32bit range offers dual AMD Athlon MP or our all new 64bit range will soon offer the exciting Opteron processor, all with massive memory bandwidth DDR RAM or even the super performance of dual channel DDR RAM.

Reliability - All our systems are supplied with full RAID 5 configured drives using the highest specification spindles and mechanisms from IBM. For the ultimate value proposition we can offer ATA 133 compatibility, your server can take full advantage of the incredible storage options out there today even with the resiliency of RAID 5. We even massively over specify the server power supply at 460watts, to ensure nothing will let you down, all without causing your FD to bald prematurely. Despite the technology, Sycom have designed the Terra-Power range with price in mind, in fact around half the price you would expect to pay from the competition.

Terra-Power Technology
Our server build philosophy is to build the best value for money servers from the industry leading component manufacturers because we don't believe in making a rod for our own backs. Almost 100% of Sycom customers supplied with a Terra-Power server will take out a Sycom Flexible Support contract, covering not only the server hardware but also their entire corporate networking infrastructure. So you see we HAVE to provide quality and reliability, as it will be us that have to pick up the pieces if we get it wrong. Although our Terra-Power servers are custom built, let us show you the level of specification you might think about with the example below.
