<p>Give this a whorl?: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.zimaboard.com/blade/">https://www.zimaboard.com/blade/</a> Bought NAS
kit and should be here approx end of March<br>
</p>
<p>I replaced an old HP PC used as a webserver, etc with one of
their Zimaboards running FreeBSD bought on sale. Went from
150-200 watts to no leds showing on my UPS draw meter. Nice to not
have to fiddle with ARM64 software picadillies. Silent!! Runs on
12v if inclined towards off-grid or grid-down usage.<br>
