alt Hacker NewsI'm curious, what is the powe draw for such a system? Of course, it heavily depends on the disks, but does it idle under 200W?
I personally feel like I will downscale my homelab hardware to reduce its power draw. My HW is rather old (and leagues below yours), more recent HW tends to be more efficient, but I have no idea how well these high end server boards can lower their idle power consumption?
That's an "if you have to ask, it's not for you" question. Also, the noise these things make... You better have a separate garage. The constraints of a data center are really far from those of a homelab.
