Hi
I'm sizing up a UPS for three boxes at home plus networking key. Rather than guessing what the figures for my FreeNAS server are, I brought a power meter to actuall check it.
My Dell T110i:
Intel CPU E3-1240 V2 @ 3.40GHz (8 cores)
16GB memory (thats all that I can afford)
6 x 4TB Iron Wolf disks
1 x 128GB SSD
My guess at first, based on zero experience, was 300W. It actually turned out to be
135W max load at startup
63W average usage.
I've no idea what everybody else uses, but if anybody needs an actual reading, here it is.
My Hackintosh runs 300W peak and 170W average.
My VMWare server runs 80W Max and 50W normally. Not bad for i4770 and 32GB Ram, All the disks in the VMWare SSD though.
Thanks
Rob
