[svlug] progress report on our new server

[Rick Moen]

Quoting Drew Bertola (drew at drewb.com):

> Are you sure your gonna have enough power for all of that?

The colo does.

To be sure, server gear always draws significant power, that it would be
good to not need.  However, suddenly being able to have 1/2 terabyte of
storage on tap is pretty tempting.  And it's not like this stuff gulps
power like the VAXen and Crays of yore -- or even your typical Opteron.
So, not green, but within reason.

> I'd say use only what you need.

We're being picky about what we actually deploy.  Some plans do
necessitate more than one host, and, sorry, we can't stick to two
disks unless someone were to find us a couple of big ones.
