ℹ️ OVERVIEW
What Are Bare Metal Servers?
Bare metal servers are dedicated physical systems that provide exclusive access to the server’s CPU, memory, storage, and network resources. Unlike shared hosting or virtual private servers, there is no provider-managed virtualization layer competing for the underlying hardware, delivering consistent and predictable performance for demanding workloads.
At ARPHost, choose from Intel Xeon and AMD processor platforms with a range of memory, storage, and network configurations. Depending on the platform, options include ECC DDR4 or DDR5 memory, NVMe and enterprise SSD storage, high-capacity HDDs, and bonded 1Gbps or 10Gbps network interfaces.
Whether you’re running business applications, databases, game servers, development environments, web hosting, or private cloud infrastructure, bare metal provides dedicated resources and the flexibility to build an environment around your workload.
Dedicated Hardware
Dedicated CPU, memory, storage, and network resources assigned exclusively to your server.
Dedicated Performance
Dedicated compute, memory, and storage resources provide consistent performance without contention from neighboring tenants.
Enhanced Isolation
Physical separation from other customers eliminates shared compute resources and provides greater control over your security environment.
Full Control
Root or administrator access gives you control over the operating system, applications, services, and server configuration.
KEY FEATURES
What Makes Our Bare Metal Servers Stand Out
Enterprise-grade features designed for performance, security, and reliability.
Intel & AMD Processors
Choose from Intel Xeon and AMD EPYC and Ryzen platforms across multiple generations, core counts, and performance tiers. Configure the right balance of compute performance, core density, and cost for your workload.
ECC Memory
Enterprise ECC memory helps detect and correct memory errors for improved stability and data integrity. Memory configurations range from general-purpose deployments to high-capacity workloads, depending on platform.
NVMe & Enterprise Storage
Build your server with high-performance NVMe, enterprise SSD, or high-capacity HDD storage. Multiple drive and RAID configurations are available to balance performance, redundancy, and capacity.
Redundant High-Speed Networking
1Gbps and 10Gbps network interfaces are available with bonded configurations supporting up to 2Gbps or 20Gbps of aggregate capacity. Bonding provides increased bandwidth and interface redundancy for supported server configurations.
DDoS Protection
Built-in network-level DDoS mitigation helps maintain service availability during common volumetric attacks through automated detection and traffic filtering at the network edge.
IPMI/KVM Access
Remote out-of-band management provides console access, power control, and hardware monitoring through IPMI/KVM, even when the operating system is unavailable.
Use Cases
Built for Your Workload
Dedicated infrastructure for virtualization, databases, applications, hosting, development, and high-performance workloads.
Database Hosting
Run high-performance SQL and NoSQL databases with dedicated CPU, memory, and storage resources for consistent I/O and demanding transactional workloads.
Game Server Hosting
Host multiplayer game servers on dedicated hardware with low-latency networking, high clock-speed CPU options, and resources dedicated entirely to your environment.
Private Cloud & Virtualization
Build dedicated virtualization environments using Proxmox, VMware, Hyper-V, or your preferred hypervisor with full control over compute, storage, and networking.
Web Hosting & Applications
Host websites, SaaS platforms, control panels, APIs, and business applications on dedicated infrastructure with predictable performance and full server control.
Development & CI/CD
Run development environments, build pipelines, testing platforms, and CI/CD workloads with dedicated resources for faster builds and predictable performance.
Media & Streaming
Power video streaming, transcoding, content delivery, and media applications with dedicated CPU or GPU resources and high-bandwidth network connectivity.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to deploy a bare metal server?
Servers in our live inventory are provisioned automatically once your order is confirmed, so most deployments need no manual steps. Windows Server is currently the only exception: those installs are completed by our team and take a little longer. Custom configurations are quoted with their own deployment timeline.
Can I upgrade my server hardware later?
Yes! RAM and storage upgrades can often be done with minimal downtime. CPU upgrades may require migration to a new server. Contact our sales team.
Do you offer managed services for bare metal servers?
Yes! Our managed services add-on includes OS updates, security patching, monitoring, and 24/7 technical support.
What happens if hardware fails?
We maintain spare hardware inventory for rapid replacement. Our technicians typically replace failed components within 4 hours. Proactive monitoring detects potential failures early.
What is your refund policy?
If you cancel an eligible service within 5 calendar days of activation, you can request a refund of the service fees you paid. Dedicated server setup fees, bandwidth overages, licensing, and third-party charges are non-refundable, and prepaid or fixed-term plans are not prorated after the 5-day window. Full terms are in our Billing Policy.
