InfoWorld - I've been on a bit of a green kick around here for the past few months. A computer lab is notoriously power hungry, with servers running at 100 percent utilization for days on end, generating traffic or running test harnesses.

Rackable Systems has added to its line of NAS solutions with its new S3116-NAS server appliance.
