Selfhosted

Why are you asking, did my wife get you to ask?

But around 300w with 24 port switch, dish shelf (3.5" disks) and server with ssd's and 2.5" disks

I try not too think about it 😬

I would guess everything together is around 800 Watts

Around 100w usually for:

• ccr2004
• crs309
• old epyc 7601 server (about 60w, 8 HDDs with spindown, 5 ssds and a mcx311 10G)
• homeassistant raspi separate from the main server
• poe switch for phone and ap.

All connected to a UPS so measuring is easy and power usage is constant. I would prefer lower as power cost is very high but there is not really anything significant to save at the moment as the server board has no standby function and i need it most of the time.

I don't know, but my electric bill is certainly painful.

Average usage for me hovers around 180-200W. I'm running the following:

• unRAID server with a Ryzen 5 5600G proc, 3 SSD/2 HDD.
• QNAP TS-251+
• Proxmox server running an i5-4460, 2 SSD/1 HDD
• UDM Base
• Unifi 8port gig switch with 3 ports providing about 12W POE, give or take.
• ISP provided modem

Given all it does for me, I'm ok with the tradeoff.

5ish watts. Raspberry pi 4 with a 2TB SSD for backups.

My proxmox server runs at 60W idle, which is the main Reason why I am getting a new system soon. Old one is running a old (2011 I think) dual core celeron.

55W idle for 3 servers, network gear and UPS. I live in the US but electricity is still expensive and I try to keep everything efficient. My primary/most powerful server with 20TB of SSD only uses 22W idle.

Between 3 switches, 4 servers, and my desktop also using one of my UPS units, I average about 850w, with peaks up to 1.1kw when my desktop is running. Luckily, electricity where I live is only 13cents/kwh.

Mine is ~300w @ 230v most of the day. It varies only on what is being used.

when power fails and i have to switch to generator, the servers stay about the same but I can add about 250w to that for my PC, modem(nbn) etc . (which is why i know this info!)

Mine runs a little under 18 W with one 8 port managed switch, a DSL modem, CM4-based router, a tiny Wifi AP, and an Intel Celeron J4105 based mini PC server.

Dual Xeon 2640v3, Quadro P2000, 6 mechanical HDDs, 5 SSDs, 8 port LSI HBA.

@hungover_pilot Way more than I would like but the way I see it, it's cheaper than drinking and I learn in the process so I take it as a cost of entertainment :)

300-350W (which currently equals about 100€/month). Running two proxmox servers in a cluster + 2 routers, modem and switch

200-300w

My rack currently consumes about 300W. This includes the following hardware:

• Dell PowerEdge R730 with 128GB RAM, 1x E5-2630 v3 (the second socket is unpopulated), 5x HDD and 4x SSD
• MikroTik CRS309-1G-8S+ (8 port 10Gbit/s switch)
• MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+ (24 port 1Gbit/s switch)
• MikroTik RB5009UPr (Router)
• Whitebox NAS with Intel Pentium Gold G5400, 16GB RAM, Adaptec RAID controller in IT mode, 19x HDD and one SSD

Mine has been idling around 300-400 watts. I've recently been making some changes that have it running more than usual. I'm hoping in the next week I will get it back below 300 watt idle. With the space I have and the current cost of solar panels I basically offset the entire labs electric usage with about $800 worth of solar gear. So I haven't stressed too much about electric use.

Server pulls around 150W with drives spun down, over 200 with all 6 spinning. UPS with all the networking equipment, server, desktop, raspi and apple tv usually hovers around 200-400W depending whether the gaming PC is on.

My last month power consumption was 151.76kWh for the UPS or around $29/mo in electricity.

edit: server is an old Dell R710 w/ dual X5675’s, 128gb of ram, GT730 for transcoding, 6x4TB 3.5” SAS drives for the array, and a 500gb SSD for cache running Unraid.

I've got:
R720 w/ 2697v2s, 12 hdds Some Intel 2011 box w/ 2667v2s A custom AM5 server w/ 7700x, 8 hdds An old Cisco enterprise 48 port (&4 SFP+) switch It seems to hover ~800w.
I'm looking into replacing a lot of it especially the Intel server because it's used for just pfSense.

About 150 watts:

• Qotum i3 4 port mini pc pfSense firewall
• TP-Link 24 port managed switch
• Shuttle DH110 SFF PC running Proxmox with Coral TPU running a Home Assistant OS VM with the Coral passed through for Frigate and an Ubuntu VM running Jellyfin, *arr stack and other media stuff
• Lenovo m910q running Proxmox and a bunch of VMs for docker and testing stuff (RHEL, Debian 11, Windows 10 Enterprise N)
• HP ProDesk 400 SFF running Proxmox with a Debian 11 VM that is my "daily driver" OS
• An ancient AMD FrankenPC cobbled together from old parts that runs Ubuntu 20.04 baremetal and exists only to house a few IronWolf drives totalling about 24TB.

All of the systems except for the firewall and fileserver have i7-6700T CPUs - 4 cores, 8 threads, 35 watts. Nice chips!

Same as you. Old AMD system with a Ryzen 2400, three hard drives and two ssds running open Media vault. The hard drives spin down after 30 minutes, as I only use them once or twice a day.

To be honest, I don't really know but it's only really costing me 5 extra dollars a month so for the additional performance and storage space, it's less expensive than renting a VPS.

~ 5 watts when I ran everything on an old laptop

~ 40 on my new desktop server

I'm a simple man with a pi4 for my docker containers, one switch, so not much compared to my PC.

Would probably get a second pi4 if I need more resources.

Currently my UPS is reporting 207 watts, that’s with a unraid server (3600 + 32GB ram + 2060 super for plex, and 6 drives), a mini pc for pf sense, a rpi 4 running pihole and vpn server, a single poe ap, a modem, and security cameras… it can spike to 250w with multiple encodes going on from family … but overall not bad… I did have a dedicated 20A switch installed for just my network closet as well

Comparable to your's. My Server/NAS usually is at about 15W to provide me and family/friends with a few selfhosted services. If i use it for backup or access some old photos/dvds it may spin up another hdd or two and it may draw additional power. (Or use the cpu). The cable modem and wifi router need another 20W combined.

I think that should be around 300kW per year. A bit more than the fridge in the kitchen claims to use per its energy label.

(edit: it's always very interesting to ask where people live (and what they're paying for energy) when asking questions like this. I'm not sure but i believe 300W in Texas is like 40W in Germany ;-)

My rack looks to pull about 325-350W. I need to downgrade my main server, as it's a bit overkill as a decommed proliant. Need to figure out a high ram nuc as a replacement

I've been eyeing a transition over to intel Nucs. At the moment i'm at about 120w, hoping to bring that down to 70-80w, or even more if possible

Currently powering:

• Thin client (firewall/router)
• Old machine (DVR)
• New machine (hypervisor)
• Nuc (testing workloads)
• Network switch
• PoE CCTV

30 watts average for Starlink
Estimating 15 watts for the two Deco units plus the Netgear range extender (acting as Ethernet bridge to protect from lightning.)
About 100 watts for the HTPC with three usb tuners.
Between 70 watts (black) and 380 watts (white) on the old Plasma.
All running on four AGM batteries charged by solar, falling back to mains when battery drops to 20%

Avarage load for me is around 300w running two T320s, a R510, and a NUC. The T320s are clustered running plex, 'arrs, pihole/unbound, game servers, and odoo. The nuc serves two purposes, firstly to keep quorum in the cluster and secondarily as a low power device to run a secondary pihole/unbound instance incase the power goes out as it's the only server that will stay on UPS power until the battery runs out. The R510 is my storage server with around 56TB and growing.

I am planning on adding a GPU server with a few tesla P40s as I've been using my workstation for these tasks which makes it difficult to use it for work.
