cpu mining safest but no guarantee it will be profitable vs. costs
running a pool may be a better idea, however if you never ran one, I don't recommend you try.
maybe depending on your ability to set them up , hosting/renting the space out might be safest although it has nothing to do with cryptocurrency
Topic: 2 Servers, but what to do?? (Read 796 times)
The lowest risk would seem to me to be just mining some CPU coins and trading out as soon as possible.
I have been out of the Alts scene for a while now, but I assume you could try Quark or Primecoin, or any that haven't been destroyed by GPU mining!
Hosting a mining pool sounds like a good idea too, but it is a commitment that you can't, or shouldn't back out of on a whim.

power supply wattage isn't the actual power that you consumes, you should check with a wattmeter to be sure about the consumption, i doubt a server consumes that much, there is only the cpu after all, that suck the most energy, ram ssd are not energy intensive
Mining pool s the only option. Do not even consider mining, that hardware s useless for mining, it s too expensive to run it for CPU coins and the rest is not even in the same ballgame.
So I should host mining pools for others?
Or host them and let people mine..?
I am not sure of what you mean
yeah this is the intention, like supernova pool in the altcoin section, he can drive you on how to do this
but there are numerous guide for this in the web one of the best https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/video-guide-how-to-make-your-own-altcoin-mining-pool-613949
The server costs around 1200 Danish kroner which is 150$- 180$ a month in power alone..
So running pools would require lots of donations or payments.
It does have 2 670W power supplies in it.
1 backup and 1 main.
if your pool charge 1% and you have enough miners, it can be done , it's a bit of a gamble like every investment
anyway 150-180 seems too much for me, i was consuming less with my old rig with 600w per hour....i doubt your server is using 0.6kw/h

Hey everyone..
I have gotten 2 dell servers with 32 GB of ram in each.
Its a Dell PowerEgde 1950 with 2 Xeon CPU's, 32 GB of good ram, and around 200GB of space.
What should I do with them?
I want to see if I can make a little money off them.
Do you have any suggestions?

Start a gaming server, exchange donations for ranks. Simple. I have gotten 2 dell servers with 32 GB of ram in each.

There are many altcoin bounties for running public nodes. With these servers you can run a couple of nodes and earn some bitcoins.
hmm.. VMware and have a Virtuel machine dedicated as a node to run different wallets?
Wont that require a lot of bandwidth?
no running a full node, consume very little bandwitdh
yeah you can use VM to run multiple node inside your one server

As Amph suggested, a mining pool for an altcoin is quite great. Moreover, just setting up something wont bring in the money, you need to make teh service viable and helpful to the target audience. Now that you have the servers you should focus on the quality you bring in with whatever service you start
you can try to setup a mining pool for altcoin, if you have enough experience, and charge a 1% fee or 0.5 if 1 is too high, but i can not assure about a high profitability
another thing is... you can build a streamer, or for gaming purpose, there are many old game that need private server, you can charge something there too

Streamer? Like Twitch??
Gaming server? Possible, but question is, if it can pay for electricity and give a little tip to me.
a server like that should consume at worst 50w per hour if the cpu isn't used max, not something to worry about
you can also put it in renting, someone always need linux or even windows server to do their stuff
i think it's better to drop the suggestion about dedicated gaming server, because you need a lot of bandwitch, not worth it i guess..
