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 ^^

    Yeah, power consumption are never the strong suit of rack mounted servers…

      Power consumption is the 2nd thing i look for in my IT devices (first is “do I need internet/cloud services to run it” … Yes is an absolut disqualifier)

      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.
