Did you do any research on increased wear of the hardware under load? That could be an additional cost that would start showing up only after a period of time.
- drakaal 13y agoServers do this all the time. Temperature change is harder on hardware than electrons flowing through it. They get replaced every 4 years or so, so very few die of chip failure. It is not like we are overclocking them.
- williadc 13y agoI work at Intel, and am involved with the "Reliability Verification" team for some of our client products. We design our chips to last 7 years when run well over the specced frequency on "viruses" that are much harder on the hardware than any realistic workload. Server teams have even stricter requirements. If any hardware is going to see increased failure, I'm guessing it's the hard drives.
