Power Management Add-In for Scaleo Home Server

The German Home Server Blog and We Got Served have details on a power management add-in for the Scaleo Home Server which is due to be released in Europe in January (2008).

The system system continually runs in Hibernation mode and only wakes up when you need to connect to it. The Power Management add-in can be configured to put the machine in to hibernation or to wake up the machine at scheduled times. The system will automatically wake itself up for essential scheduled tasks like nightly backups. Doing so will keep power consumption at a minimum and Fujitsu-Siemens are seeing this add-in as a selling point for the Scaleo Home Server, so it is doubtful for the add-in will be available else where.
