It can wreck folding@home and a power bill at the same time

actually - not great at folding. http://www.crazy-logic.co.uk/archives/795 yeah it'll do a WU in 2 hours but.... 

 

ppd/power
the M600 server blade 23000/8.64kWh = 2662 points/kWh,
the QC Core 2 Quad 6500/2.62kWh = 2480 points/kWh,
the QC with 750Ti 38000/3.6kWh = 10500 points/kWh.

Forreal. I wonder what kind of power it would draw at full load

urm.... fully loaded, lots. Each blade is 360W and the fans on with 4 blades funning full pelt is ~800W 

it has 6 PSU slots, each can be 2.3kW or 2.7kW i think, and i've got 4 installed. You can run all 16 blades off 3 PSU's. But the chassis has some power budgeting functions so if you loose PSU's you can do funky stuff like kill blades in a set order or reduce the power allocation to the blades i think.

Please get a server rack soon as possible. It pains me to see that beauty on the floor

 

I have one - but this needs a 1m deep rack, which i don't have. hey - i put it on its own wheel board not to scratch it

Sounds about right. Should make a good whole home heater

i actually use it to head my workshop from 6 to 22 deg (Deg C) with 3-4 blades running for an hour full pelt folding.

Yeah I've got a similar problem - got a fully populated IBM blade chassis with I think 14 blades sitting on a pallet that I can't spin up due to the 3 x 15Amp power feeds that it wants. Needs about 7.3KW at full load.

yeah i have it hooked upto a 32a circuit, but I calculate around 7-8KW on full load.

I just had a flash back to 2000! I had that case for my desktop at the time (Pentium II) - I believe it was made by Hyena. 

 

I have several of those cases. They are quite nice.

 

I also have three of the ones LinusTechTips used in his "Rebuilding first PC" video.

Oh. I have kind of a soft spot for them. They aren't too bad.

I actually liked some the older dell case designs.

I like the Dell OptiPlex cases from around 2008. hey aren't bad, but are limited due to being BTX.

My small production setup.  Colocated since I can't deal with this much noise.  Plus I have a gigabit connection..

 

Juniper SRX240

Cisco 2960G

 

Supermicro Twin2 quad-node 2U w/ 2x E5620 + 96GB ram each.

Supermicro 2U storage 2U w/ 2x E5-2620 + 64GB ram 12x2TB Seagate Constellations

 

The other gear is my buddy's who I share some space with.

Old setup, have since ditched the rack and changed hardware.
