Hi,
I got two HP DL380 G7 with 2 x X5675 @ 3,07 GHZ (6 Core + HT = 24 Threads), 8 x 900GB SAS HDDs and 128 GB RAM each.
Is there an easy way to reduce my power footprint?
Resell the RAM-Sticks and buy another server - reusing the disks? Those servers require 170 Watt each - for 24/7 it's way too high.
On the other hand the computing power is quite good and for temporary lab use it seems a good solution shut down those servers completly (iLO needs about 8-10 Watt).
Any ideas?
Regards
Markus
