I have a computer built around the H12SSL-NT that draws 12 watts in standby, seemingly mostly the dual 10g NICs. I don't need those interfaces to be on when the computer is on, and in fact, I only ever need one of them. But I haven't found a way to disable one or the standby-on behavior. Is there a way to disable these?
Also, when on but idle, the machine draws about 80 watts. That's not entirely unreasonable given how it's kitted out, and aside from disabling the 10g NIC I don't need, I don't think there's likely to be a lot to do to cut this down. May as well ask though: any tips on cutting down idle power consumption on the H12 series boards?
Thanks!
