IGXHost only utilizes high-end servers that have their hard drives in a RAID-10 Disk Array. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks. It is a technology which combines multiple disk drives to increase performance and increase reliability.
RAID-10 is disk mirroring and striping. In our servers it consists of four disk drives. Data is mirrored between two disks and then striped over two additional disks. The total size of the array is the size of two of the disk drives. RAID-10 has the highest disk read and writes rates. It also offers the highest level of reliability as it can sustain multiple drive failures in some cases without data loss.

OpenVZ Virtualization
OpenVZ is container-based virtualization for Linux. OpenVZ creates multiple secure, isolated containers (otherwise known as VEs or VPSs) on a single physical server enabling better server utilization and ensuring that applications do not conflict. Each container performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server; a container can be rebooted independently and have root access, users, IP addresses, memory, processes, files, applications, system libraries and configuration files.
