Looking for field experience from you guys, who I trust. HP's Power Advisor (pretty nice tool if you've never used it) begs to differ - even if I fully load a machine with the fastest 6-core Xeons, 8G RAM sticks in all 18 slots, 4x 15K disks, and 2x PCIe 8GB FC cards (which belch heat if their 2GB cousins are any indication), the Power Advisor only comes out around 420W for the whole machine, which is split evenly across both PSUs if your power sources are stable. My CDW rep implied/suggested that if you have the server "loaded up" the 460W units would die more frequently due to the heat/load, and that the 750W was "safer" if you have a lot in the box.
They all tend to ship with a 460W PSU (or a pair). We're starting to replace hardware and I've been getting some of the new G6 and G7 D元60s.
