Conclusion
We tested Equinix’s Melbourne bare metal server, examining its performance for hosting and other applications. The server boasts an Intel Xeon E-2378G processor, 64GB of RAM, and dual 25Gbps network ports. Our benchmarks confirmed this, with Geekbench 6 scores exceeding 2400 for single-core and 10000 for multi-core performance. Memory and disk speeds were equally impressive, exceeding 9.6GB/s and 11.4GB/s for memory read/write, and reaching over 450MB/s for disk operations.
Network tests showed the server’s international connectivity truly shines. We achieved multi-gigabit speeds to various global locations, confirming its suitability for international audiences. However, streaming access presented a mixed bag. While Amazon Prime Video worked flawlessly, Netflix was limited to original content, and Disney+ was completely blocked. This suggests potential geographical restrictions or IP-related issues that require further investigation.
The server’s IP reputation appears generally positive, linked primarily to hosting and data center operations. This is a good sign for avoiding email deliverability problems. We also confirmed the full functionality of standard email ports, ensuring smooth communication. The server runs Debian 11, a stable and widely supported operating system, that provides a solid foundation for various applications.
Overall, the Equinix Melbourne bare metal server delivers exceptional performance in terms of processing power, memory, storage, and network connectivity. It’s a strong contender for demanding applications, websites, and international audiences.
In conclusion, this server offers a powerful platform for businesses and individuals seeking high-performance hosting. However, the limitations of streaming services warrant consideration depending on your specific needs. Further testing and potential mitigation strategies for streaming access are recommended before making a final decision.
