I got this old server and I always like to fiddle with old hardware, so I took a lot of pictures and shared them on my blog with some explaination!
Feedback always appreciated ^^

Powered off it uses almost twice the energy of my server.
That’s insane.
Yeah indeed ^^’
Oh, wow, you weren’t joking. Jeez.
Nice post. Recognisable too. I have an old server from work at home, but came to the same conclusion: with that power consumption it’s no fun running it 24/7 at home.
Yeah, power consumption are never the strong suit of rack mounted servers…
Ive got a R720 running a decent load at the moment pulling 90W, which is about what my laptop uses. So you can totally do rack mount machines that aren’t howling winter heaters.
