1> I'm curious to know what I can expect in terms of amperage. I've got a limited amount of amps available at my server room, so I'd like to plan accordingly regarding consumption for each one of these bad boys. Also, what is the minimum/maximum as I'd assume there's fluctuation depending on HDD bay usage?
2> Can you please give me a rough estimate based on this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360286574681&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_2766wt_1137
1> The power consumption depends on system configuration. (Ex. CPU, memory, HD etc) If those are unknown, we can only assume worst case: which is about 400W per system.
2> It will consume about 400W per system during stress.
120Vac= 400W/0.98/120=3.4Amp
208Vac= 400W/0.95/208=2.02Amp
