CPU usage & power consumption Predictable and consistent 2.8GHz boost for a few seconds then down to 2.4GHz. I also tracked power for several weeks with a SONOFF Pow. Lowest wattage idling with Unraid, no drives spun-up, C states enabled on left. Max Wattage 100% load with all ...
I'm in the process of deciding which hardware to use for an unraid server, while I know exactly what I want from the server, I don't entirely know what hardware I want/can use. My priority for my server is extreme low power consumption. I am planning on using it as a NAS unit ...
If not, that's fine, but I just want to know my options. You can just downclock any cpu and it becomes hugely more efficient. Your current xeon can easily stay sub 30w when locked at 2.4ghz. Tdp DOES NOT EQUAL POWER CONSUMPTION. It's a big thing people constantly mistake. It'...
You can't. Hardware encoding is fast as heck and relatively low power for the work it performs, but it's not as efficient in terms of 'Quality Per Megabyte' as software encoding. The hardware encoder on any GPU is a fixed ASIC that is built for speed and can't really be updated. A...
I received N5100 NAS board last week, installed MB in a LianLi Q25 case, currently running UNRAID 6.12.4 Hosting 2 x 14TB sata drive, Emby docker. It is performing hardware transcode really well. Con: I am disappointed with the power saving. powertop --autotune carsh the machine....
low idle power reasonable CPU performance for compression able to handle 12 hard drives + at least 1 NVMe capacity to (eventually) convert those 12 hard drives to 6 NVMe + 6 SSD SATA keep costs under control – since a motherboard purchase would be required, try to stick with DDR...
(cli-only) edition was used. Some GNOME stuff in the background would cause the CPU to bounce out of certain idle states, but if you’re trying to decide between Desktop and Server it’s really not going to make much difference in terms of power consumption. If you have a monitor ...
I'm using this mini PC as an Unraid server for my company, mainly deploying Docker containers for myself and clients, and storing data. I have 5x4TB disks and 32GB of RAM. I wanted a small but capable server without the noise, heat, and power consumption of an enclosure with HDDs. Le...
