I'm looking at building a new home server.
My current server works great, but it's based on old hardware and runs pretty hot during the summer. (event though I live in cold Norway)
Among the software I run is AirVideo server which does live transcoding of 1080p HD videos.
In other words, my setup need some kick to be able to run this smoothly for at least 2-3 users.
The other services i run, are mainly low performance services like ftp, vpn, http and such.
In my head less power means less heat, so im guessing power consumtion is key for this to run cooler.
Any hardware suggestions regarding a setup like this, would be much appreciated.
