All are hpe dl360 gen10 with dual xeon 5220 gold and 92gb ram. They just draw a lot of power and not suitable for my setup.
My larger 380s are 800w very comparable to a desktop.
These are dual 800w
800w continuous draw? Because an 800w PSU machine could still draw only 100w during regular use. 800w desktop/background draw is crazy u less you're doing some kind of heavy computer in it. My (desktop PC hardware) server draws 100w continuously.
I have an hp 360 gen 8 that draws around 250-300 watts. My desktop pc is ranging 150-200 just idle browsing, gaming is a whole other level of wattage though.
And that's why we all love r/homelabsales. These systems came find a home where they have a nice big rack, with tons of fans, and they can run free(BSD)(or whatever).
I only buy free range servers now
Dawg list these on ebay
I'll gladly take 1 or 5 off your hands, my house needs the heat.
Go install many solar panels!
Well. A few, and then a decent battery. Or, JUST a battery and dynamic tariff. Top it off during low rates. My rack is basically running free now.
Then you're just paying the opportunity cost.... You're bank account is still down from what it could have been. I should install some solar panels....
Hey bro! Yk if you dont want them i’ll take some off your hands! Its my honor!
They draw 0 now.

Shit I'll take one. My power edge servers use the same cpu and draw around 240 to 280 at idle
Would gladly use to replace a Gen DL320 Gen8 I use for a firewall.
That's quite a firewall
Just finishing up getting rid of mine lol, went all mini PCs and while it was a pain to setup its working great lol. Not nearly as cool though 😅

If you have solar, you can offload a lot of the running costs that way, and what's left from overnight use is quite manageable. I run an R720 24/7 and I'm only covering around 3kWh per day from the grid. If it were actually doing constant enterprise loads, it would be a different story.
Do you sell these rails?
Not sure what I'm going to do yet.
My favorite is when people say they draw too much power and instead they have 4 NUCs, 2 NASs and a bunch of raspberry pis.
I only have a couple optiplex micros atm. But they are way quieter. Only running Hass and opnsense.
If they're bothering you, I'll happily find a use for them?
Very modest specs so not really power hungry. But you can pick the memory/cpu and grab a unspecced workstation for almost nothing. That gets you the same chipset to reuse the pricey memory in a quiet formfactor, also a bit more practical if not using a rack.
One Xeon, one PSU and I bet they draw a lot less.
My gen 9 is sitting at 80 right now
Where are you located? Maybe you can sell/trade for something better suited to your needs.
My G7s draw about 150W in low-power mode. You can force this in the bios power settings. Also, you can connect only one psu and all of a sudden you have enough power for … about 8-10 servers
Strip a CPU and half the ram out and watch the Watts drop. You still might sit at around 150 to 180
I also have a similar server with a single epyc 7551 and 64gb ram that I'm playing with now. It has single psu.
A lot of people dont care about the power draw. Sell them off and you can build or buy newer systems with lower power draw.
I got some room just not the budget
Happy to take a few off your hands if there in Florida!
also those rails sucked
Take the RAM and run!
Lol I've got 4 in the back of my car and our network guys are too lazy to walk out to the parking lot to grab them 🙃.
I run the desktop variant. At WOT it pulls about 300w with many disks and 384GB RAM
Or generate a lot of heat. I have 3 hosts I yanked out of our primary colo I'd like to wipe esxi off and add proxmox to prep to carry to our second colo someday but it's too hot to run them. My hpe dl360 gen 8 stays powered off and my minisforum ai nas are not turned on unless I'm going to play with proxmox.
Ohh boy. I have a collection lol https://preview.redd.it/k6tmz8tn1tgh1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=66e8987604d46058029663d7dc2513e2cdb71df0
are.... Are these Harmonic (I guess MediaKind now) XOSes?
Save them for winter then, for heating purposes.

List them on ebay or homelabsales. Plenty of people would buy these
Si vas a vender a un buen precio te compro con rieles.😅
If you're from Europe, you might be interested in 1, no matter the RAM or the CPUs. I prefer almost less stuff and better price :)
If I had good enough solar installed I would run all of these and not give a single fuck.
Would use less power than what I currently run.
And so compact. Those things are alarmingly loud.
