pyros03 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I've had my UnRaid server going 24/7 for a bit over a month now and thought I'd share my log. If I'm not mistaken, this should be good for level 2 tested. If I'm lacking something, please let me know so I can get it there. I've had zero problems so far! FYI, it takes about 6.6 hours to check parity.

Rajahal Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Looks good to me, but I'm no syslog expert. If someone else wants to confirm that there are no nasties in the syslog, I'll add this to the wiki. Link to comment
smoldersonline Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 I'm trying to do a basic (newbie) configuration of my server with this board and was wondering whether it could work with S3 sleep mode? cat /proc/acpi/sleep tells me S0 S1 and S5, so I guess not. Maybe I overlook a BIOS setting? Thanks! Link to comment
pyros03 Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 I haven't tested any sleep modes, but maybe you could try changing the ACPI version to 3.0 instead of 2.0? If you're concerned about energy usage, here is an overview of my setup's power draw: I have an AT&T Router/Gateway, a 24 port gigabit switch, a 1U Atom server (hardware firewall), and the UnRaid server itself in a rack all on one outlet. Using my kill-a-watt, the rack is pulling 128W from the wall. If I spin up all 6 drives (three of which are low power) that are in the UnRaid server, it draws up to 180W. Link to comment
aiden Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 If you're concerned about energy usage, here is an overview of my setup's power draw: I have an AT&T Router/Gateway, a 24 port gigabit switch, a 1U Atom server (hardware firewall), and the UnRaid server itself in a rack all on one outlet. That's a lot of extra equipment to determine the draw of your unRAID server only. I suspect your Atom firewall represents 30 - 50W of that consumption, depending on the generation. Could you pull the kill-a-watt and place it between your server and your power splitter? Using my kill-a-watt, the rack is pulling 128W from the wall. If I spin up all 6 drives (three of which are low power) that are in the UnRaid server, it draws up to 180W. What type of drives? A 50W jump just for 6 drives seems high, even for 7200 rpm drives.

pyros03 Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 I finally had the time to move my kill-a-watt off the whole rack and onto the unraid server itself while a thunderstorm was going on outside. Here are the results I observed: 51w at idle; all drives spun down 126w peak while spinning up drives 80w after all drives spinning I have 3 Samsung HD203WI (2TB EcoGreen F3), a Seagate ST31000528AS (1TB 7200.12 Barracuda), a Seagate ST3500630AS (500GB 7200.10 Barracuda), and a WD5000AACS (500GB Caviar GP).

talmania Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I've had this board running for a whole week now ( ) and absolutely love it so far. The IPMI is invaluable as the norco is just sitting in the garage on a shelf with my patch panel etc. So glad I grabbed this board! Link to comment
mathiasi Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I'm curious to know if this board has any undervolting-features that could reduce the power consumption? Link to comment
