IT Power Consumption con't: Intel Servers

Finally got around to measuring the power usage of one of our main Intel servers ... ~326W combined across both power supplies.  Frankly, I expected this to be less considering our EqualLogic arrays pull 300W and they are spinning 14 disks and big blowers.  Oh well, it's more data for the power project.

Shows you how much power CPUs really take! (especially the non-mobile variety) Spinning a small motor is peanuts compared to running silicon at 3GHz ;-)
