Re: [LUG] Laptop CPU etc power consumption

 

In use for the moment.
Building changing use later this year, but may still need a locked network Cupboard for a while for the next use.

I'll bear it in mind.

Well, there is a hub... And I like having Darth Cupboard there marking some space as mine ...

It used to be fileserver and virtual desktops to several desktop machines, a database, mail and webserver, Squidcache, hinting engine and send backups out.

But time has passed.

You've got a full 42U rack just sat there?! Obviously it depends on what
your under-utilised PowerEdge is actually doing, but it seems very
likely you could save a ton of space and power by tossing (or rather,
donating) the entire lot and just sticking a RPi2 in.

I'm looking to buy a 2nd hand rack - I could part with some cash if its genuinely available.Â
