Google's Luiz Barroso explains that total power costs can outstrip the hardware cost for a server. He adds that Google has often used memory based storage to realize a 1000 times increase over hard drives.

Rattner talks about energy waste in major dataprocessing centers. Much of the waste comes from repeated DC to AC conversions from Uninterruptible Power Supplies and from Power Supply Units. By switching to a Single Voltage Rail design, Intel could make 90
