For such a server I would look at solid state disk -- much lower power than hard drives, but higher cost per gigabyte and for a FreedomBox difficulty in erasing it completely may be a concern. See a previous thread here for discussion. I'd also look at Intel's Atom line of low-power CPUs: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/atom/atom-processor.html Those get CPU power usage down under 5 watts. Wikipedia lists Via Nano and AMD Fusion CPUs as Atom competitors. Those might also be an alternative. _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
