Web Host News – Lenexa, Kan. – With the introduction of a government small business lending program on the horizon, Codero is taking actions to help small- to medium-sized businesses save money recognizing that all businesses might not be able to take advantage of the lending program. Disbursement of the government funds from its signature small-business lending program are expected soon. Lenders must have less than $10 billion in assets to participate.

Codero specializes in building custom IT solutions for businesses ranging from dedicated server hosting and server management to cloud computing. The optimized infrastructure provider is lowering the price on one of the most in demand servers.  While supplies last, Codero’s configured Intel i7 Quad Core 2.8 GHz, is now $110/month. Codero’s list price for this configuration is $270 and has been on special in recent months for as low as $135 per month but required an annual pre-payment.

According to Marketing Director Shelby Garlock, “Dropping the price further on this popular server and removing any pre-payment term is just one way we are helping businesses with their budgeting. It makes it easy for them to boost their IT systems and improve their cash flow without taking on new debt. There are no pre-payment requirements for this special, and there are never any contracts with Codero. We also are extending our current free 12TB special which removes the worry over a variable monthly expense in a business’s operational budget.”

The i7 is a favored configuration because it maximizes speed for demanding applications and can dynamically accelerate performance to match one’s workload with quad core clock-speeds of 2.8GHz. It also boasts the Intel Smart Cache which provides a more efficient cache subsystem optimized for industry leading multi-threaded games.
Intel i7 Quad Core 2.8 GHz server features include:
- 4 GB
- 250 GB SATA2
- RAM upgradable to 16 GB
- 12 TB monthly transfer at no extra cost
- 5 IP Addresses
- 8 MB L3 Cache
- 2.5 GT/s FSB

With each server, Codero also supports customers with a 99.9% uptime guarantee; 24/7/365 live U.S.-based support; a Rewards Points Program; and SAS 70 Type II Certification. The in-stock inventory for this reduced-price server is limited and quantities are expected to go quickly.
