Abstract

The increasing concern of energy usage in datacenters has drastically changed how the IT industry evaluates servers. The energy conscious selection of storage subsystems is the next logical step. This paper first quantifies the possible energy savings of utilizing modern storage subsystems by identifying inherent energy characteristics of next generation disk IO subsystems. Additionally, the power consumptions of a variety of workload patterns is demonstrated.
