Will that really work? You'd just be moving the problem elsewhere because whoever stores your data will have machines running too.

You could consider building your own new machine that doesn't need cooling and uses the lowest power CPU you can get.

You are better off raising the AC temp a few degrees than worrying about 150W of power your data uses.
