Cost of running servers? - .eXe - Oct 16, 2014
Can anyone give me a rough guesstimate of the monthly cost of running 2 DL380 G4 servers 24/7?
The PSU draws about 550W. I'm talking headless, too.
Thanks,
Evil.

600W average power draw combined.
14.4kWh per day.
432kWh per month.
Somewhere between $50 and $60 most likely (assuming an average rate of 12 cents per kWh).
