I've just setup a Microserver Gen8 at home, from what I can work out from my smart meter its consuming about 85watts of power running 4 HDDs, a single SSD in the ODD bay and upgraded to 16GB Ram.
I've gone down the VM route and running ESXi6 free version which is booting from a USB Stick plugged into the internal USB port. It also has an internal MicroSD slot which can boot ESXi. I've got 4 drives, 2 WD Red NAS 2TB drives stripped only and 2 Seagate drives also stripped only. I have a good backup routine of off and onsite backups to backup my 900GB of data using USB3 drives for speed. This is a good source of info on the GEN8 http://homeservershow.com/forums/ind...m/88-ms-gen-8/
