Hi, Andy.
I'm running LizardFS SDS, so they all need to be on 24/7, but the disks
do spin down when not in use. However,

Hiya
I'm a bit late to this chat, sorry.
Yea, power costs are pretty scary, my maths/bills pegs it at £2365 p/a inc
vat, for 6x250w 24/7.

I don't know if AAOD pay a fixed fee

I'd be opposed to 57North paying for the electricity for this. It'll be in the
ball park of all our income⁰. As much as I'd like to play with a compute
cluster I don't think it's worth (possibly more than) all of the space's money.
Hi,

I think this would be a great thing for the space to do, espectially
considering the two ISP that are providing us service.
Hi, Tom.
Thanks for your support :-)
I think that we would need to run this by Isobel at AAOD though. This is
likely to be

To be clear, they consume about 250W when idle and ~350W when working.
FFS,
Tony.
Heh, yes I was just typing a message checking if you meant W but you noticed
yourself before I got as far as sending :)
Hi, Robert.
Thanks :-)

Hi, Robert.
You knew, of course that I meant 250W/h ;-)
Hi, Robert.
Sorry, again, I really hate making silly mistakes in public :-(

Head full of KW/h just now working out my bill!
Sorry about that,

What does power usage of those systems look like?
Hi,
Brexit and Covid-19 have wreaked havoc on my business plans with Luca in
Italy and I'm reconsidering if I should ship six servers that I've built
to Italy or host them here in Scotland?
