- logifail 4y ago> Dell R650's that draw 384W Umm, I'm not sure I can afford the electricity to run kit like that :) I'm currently awaiting delivery of an Asus PN41 (w/ Celeron N5100) to use as yet another home server, after a recommendation from a friend. Be interesting to see how much it draws at idle!
- livueta 4y agoHrm, interesting to see how the TDP of those 8358s drives overall power consumption. I'm looking at the idrac consoles of a couple R720XDs with 12 3.5" hdds, >128gb ram, two E5-2665s per, and they're all currently sipping ~150W at < 1 load average. The E5s have a TDP of 115W to the 8358's 250W, so I assume that's what's most of it. I admittedly do some special IPMI fan stuff, but that only shaves off tens of watts.
