Law firms purchase servers and other devices, such as routers and switches, and put them in data centers where they pay to heat it up with electricity and cool it down with chilled water, or chillers. With an aim to give customers a more cost-effective performance for every watt of energy used, Texas-based Dell has introduced new servers with better temperature controls and improved Intel Xeon processors.
Dell believes that modern data centers run at lower temperatures than necessary. Its new Fresh Air technology is designed to cool modern data centers without chillers. Toward that end, Dell validated a number of current server platforms to extend their temperature and humidity limits for short terms, which aim to allow a window of opportunity to accomplish work while saving energy.
