#2 Re: minimum power consuming network setup Posted by PaulePanter (84.190.xx.xx) on Sat 24 Mar 2007 at 09:03 Hi Phil, thank you for your reply. I have some questions, though. 1. When you have the always-on NSLU2 at home, why do you rent an extra server? What software does not run on the NSLU2, that you need? Or is it a security thing. > For my desktop I have a mini-ITX box with a VIA C3 1GHz processor, and a 4 GB flash drive. This takes about 20W (and of course the monitor takes more). It's actually sold as a thin client, but it is more than adequate for everything I do. There are newer VIA boards with 1.2 GHz C7 processors that provide more performance at lower power, maybe as low as 6 W in some cases. 2. Are you able to do multimedia work with this computer? > - Avoiding bloatware, so that you can run from flash. 3. Did you come a around a nice HOWTO to set this up, that for example the /tmp is mounted in the RAM, that there are not much write access to the flash-drive? If not, I will just google for it. > Good luck. Thanks ;) Paul
