![]() ![]() ![]() I don't see a huge difference in price between the two systems given the slight difference in mix of features, parts, etc. while Sun says.quote:100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 465 W PFC supply, dual redundant fans So it looks like the Sun server can draw 65W more then the new Xserve G5.Looking at the prices.It looks like dual CPU sun servers (assuming you are talking about "Sun Fire V20z Server") start at $3,995.00 which gets you 2GB RAM (DDR333 ECC), 1 x 73GB SCSI drive (max two drives in system), 2 x Model 244 Opterons (1.8GHz), CD-ROM drive, 2 x PCI-X slots, 2 x GigE, 1 USB, 1 x serial port, no OS installed, no rack mount kit.For $3,999.00 you can get a new Xserve G5 with 1GB RAM (DDR400 ECC), 1 x 80GB SATA drive (max 3 drives in system), 2 x 2.3GHz G5, Combo drive (DVD-ROM/CD-RW), 2 x PCI-X slots, 2 x GigE, 2 x USB, 1 x serial port, 2 x FW800, 1 x FW400, Mac OS X Server unlimited-client edition, slide rail rack mount system. Opteron comes it at 89W max and the Xeon at 110W max (not sure clock rate on either but assume top end CPUs).Also Apple says the following for the new systems power wise.quote:Line voltage: universal input (90V to 264V AC), power factor correctedMaximum input current: 4A (90V to 132V) or 2A (180V to 264V)Frequency: 47Hz to 63Hz, single phaseOutput power: 400W. Quote:Originally posted by jwbaker:Finally the Sun uses less power According to Apple's numbers for the 2.3 GHz G5 (assuming PCC 970FX) the max power consumption per CPU is 55W. ![]()
