  Perfect, I don’t need to run the fans anymore!

  Seriously though - we have 5 kids, and feeding the little shits is expensive, so we freeze a lot of things for storage.

    Measuring my server cluster

    Personally, I just don’t ask questions I don’t want the answer to.

      Lat I checked, it was 40w idle for me on the kill-o-watt. Spinny rust and all!

      I know they’re gonna be a power suck lol. Three mini PCs, a SFF PC, 4-bay hard drive docking station, 8-port switch, and a RPi0w… Hoping for a max of 200W, but I suppose we’ll see what happens 🫤

        I see your 4-bay docking station and raise my 20-bay storage server. I even stopped counting how much the hardware costs for it :p

    Have you considered putting your children in one of the storage freezers? /s
