running a web site on.

Hi Donald

That's just the kind of thinking I've been going through. 

Craig Dewick has all the info in the Sun Systems Handbook on his great
site :-

http://www.sunshack.org/data/sh/2.1.8/infoserver.central/data/syshbk/Sys
tems/index.html

I see the Ultra1 in EOL models list (scroll down).

Here's it has for my SunBlade 1000 :-

AC input  		100 - 240 VAC, 47 - 63 Hz, 8 A(max), 0.875 KVA
Input power 	670 W
Heat output 	2286 BTU/hr

Fortunately it is able to spin down drives etc when not it use.

Best regards

Ben
