I have an older Xeon E5-1620 and X9SRM as my FreeNAS platform. I haven't done any testing to isolate exactly how much power just the MB/CPU is using but I noticed the system as a whole is idling at almost 300 watts.
This is in a Supermicro SC846 with 920W platinum PSU and 24x WD 8TB Red/White drives.
Does anyone else have a similar setup and if so how much power is it using? I'm thinking of moving to a Xeon E-2100 setup but it will be a very high upfront cost primarily due to the high price of DDR4 memory.
Any other input or advice would be appreciated.
