Dell T640 Power Management Options
Does the Dell T640 have Power Management Options?
Can a portion of the hardware be configured to sleep during a period of inactivity?For instance can inactive HDDs be allowed to power-down/sleep?
The reason I ask is, I am currently running a Lenovo TD350 server which has turned out to be an absolute AC power hog.
My external backup HDD for one is powered on all of the time. This I feel is not only extra power consumption but unnecessary wear on the drive for it to be powered on 24/7.
Lenovo's policy is that they have no intention of ever adding power management options to their server line.
Thanks
