What kind of server are you running?

My home NAS running ZFS needs way more RAM than either of those boxes can
handle, but then again, they can't handle SATA drives, either. For the
price of the VIA, if you can find one, my AMD e350 boxes didn't cost much
more for much more performance. Also, it idles at 18 W plus storage. The Pi
RevB needs 3.5 W plus accessories, so they're both pretty lean if power
savings is your goal.
