Mine runs at 30watts at idle.
That powers 4 switches, 1AP, and my proxmox system (framework laptop motherboard) which runs my router and my services.
What is everyone else’s usage and what does it power?
What’s the recommended way to measure power consumption? Any instrument in particular?
@humanreader @hungover_pilot @selfhosted Most folks I know use a KILL A WATT.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
My proxmox server runs at 60W idle, which is the main Reason why I am getting a new system soon. Old one is running a old (2011 I think) dual core celeron.
Avarage load for me is around 300w running two T320s, a R510, and a NUC. The T320s are clustered running plex, 'arrs, pihole/unbound, game servers, and odoo. The nuc serves two purposes, firstly to keep quorum in the cluster and secondarily as a low power device to run a secondary pihole/unbound instance incase the power goes out as it’s the only server that will stay on UPS power until the battery runs out. The R510 is my storage server with around 56TB and growing.
I am planning on adding a GPU server with a few tesla P40s as I’ve been using my workstation for these tasks which makes it difficult to use it for work.
I’m a simple man with a pi4 for my docker containers, one switch, so not much compared to my PC.
Would probably get a second pi4 if I need more resources.
