My Go Green Server

[chirantha7777]

This is the go green server I'm gonna get!

What is Go Green? It means the server is environmental friendly (uses less amount of power).

Specs :

Intel Celeron 430 1.8GHz (35W TDP)
Foxconn G31 motherboard
400W PSU
1 x 160GB Hitachi HDD
2GB Kingston RAM, 800MHz
Samsung DVD-Writer

The total power consumption should be less than 60W (around 53W) which means my server uses less power than a light bulb.

The current server I have is a monster... over 150W (A 550W PSU is not enough for it ) its a Celeron D 2.8GHz... heats my room like a room heater and need 5 cooling fans in total to keep it at 58C idle... believe it?

Advantages I will have once I get my Go Green PC...

1. More Backup Time with UPS
2. Less heat in the room
3. Less noise from fans (MORE SLEEP YAY!)
4. Lower Power Bill
5. Ability to run from our 650VA generator
6. A LAN PORT ON BOARD !!

Of course.... that's because the heat generated is being quickly sent away from the PC so your room gets hot....

I've been running this server for over 3 years now... 97% up time (most of the downtime is caused by SLT's IP change... can't afford Static IP)

what abt ITX mb with o/b CPU? Via C7 or Atom..it'll be much better

 

[chirantha7777]

Problem with Atom is... only ONE PCI not enough

wat are u planning to do with Intel Celeron 1.8Ghz? and a 160 HDD??? Its a slow CPU and small amount of Space to a server.

Build a server using a Core i7 or a xeon CPU

Machan I mean that the Celeron is not power full enough. usually Servers have a good CPU and and a big hard drive.

Yea, and they also have a large amount of bandwidth. I'm on a SLT ADSL 512K package... the reason I'm running the server is because it hosts some sites and services. And also because I can't be pushing limits of PHP on someone elses server
