      The machine was nearly 20 years old, and when the tech who had a crash cart hooked up told me "the screen is unresponsive, it's hard-locked, needs a power cycle" I should have told him he's full of shit? Just want to learn from a pro how it's done. Plz tell me.

      You run production websites on 20 year old hardware? That's more of a concern to me than your alleged DDoS. No consumer should trust these people.

      We're not a for-profit company and we're run 100% by volunteers from the fandom. Sometimes 20-year old gear is all you can afford.

      You can get a much newer Proliant DL380 G8 for a couple of hundred bucks. I run so much stuff on a pair of those it's unreal.

      How many amps do they consume, our of curiosity? Power is our biggest limitation. We bought a bunch of new ULP 1Us for our new rack to host the new site we've been working on. 10U of servers (48 cores) only using 3.5A of power.

      Replying to @furbuy @NaiaOkami and

      how do you have 48 cores in 10 servers, unless they're different configs? Anyway, I just asked my nearest UPS, and it says my DL380 G6s are pulling about 2.2a @ 117v for 24 cores between 2 physical servers. (I feel like a lot of that is the 16 10k disks)

      8 machines are 4-core appservers/fileservers and the other 2 are 8-core database servers (master/slave). So yeah, different configs. Each 1U is purpose-built.

      A quick eBay search turns up a 32 core DL580 G7 with 128 GB RAM for $400, so don't let the "hardware's expensive" deter you.

      Power's the main concern, like I said. We used to run on a pair of retired Dell PowerEdge machines but they were each sucking up around 4 Amps each. Of course, 8-disk SCSI array and double redundant P/S can do that...

      If power is a concern why haven't you moved to more recent more efficient servers? Theres gotta be a point where the power savings justifies the cost of new machines.

      Replying to @thekayfox @RaksinSergal and

      We did for the new site. As stated in another thread recently, we have built 10 brand new modern ULP servers to host the new site. Combined they cruise at 2.5A at low load and max out at under 4A at full load. It's the old servers that have been sucking down all our juice.

          Just out of sheer amused curiosity, what processors are in the new machines, and what were in the old?

          Honestly not a clue. ULPs have very limited options, though, and Intel has discontinued production of them, though we have no trouble finding them on the market still.
