September 12, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Dedicated server hosting company SoftLayer Technologies (softlayer.com) announced on Wednesday that it has partnered with testing software developer PassMark Software (passmark.com) to offer hardware testing solution BurnInTest at no-charge to customers.

BurnInTest evaluates the endurance, reliability and stability of all a server's hardware components including its motherboard, CPU, RAM, drive controllers and network cards. SoftLayer says it will use it to test every server prior to its deployment and customers will receive the results of the hardware certification process. SoftLayer will also preload BurnInTest on every server to enable customers to run their own hardware tests at any time after deployment.

"We're offering BurnInTest to further our commitment to giving customers the highest level of service and assurance," says Sam Fleitman, chief operating officer of SoftLayer. "Knowing a server is reliable can help save customers more than just worry. It helps avoid the costs and inconvenience of downtime and lost data."

SoftLayer also recently added facilities and office space following a period of steady and increasing sales.
