About this deal

Dell is positioning the Wyse 5070as a highly-configurable virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) client platform. The Wsye 5070’s configuration ensures its functionality is suitable for a wide range of situations, from being a basic VDI client for task workers to being one that supports the most demanding of workloads. More specifically, the Wsye 5070 has 21 ports for connectivity, supports five different OSes, two different CPU families, many different memory and storage configurations, and all common remote display protocols. Additionally, it can be configured to support up to four 4K monitors and two 2K monitors, thereby satisfying the most demanding of users.

The versions I bought were the thin version, which only have a single Realtek NIC. But they have USB-C on the front, which means a second gigabit NIC can easily be added. And as I’m running VyOS, Realtek NICs aren’t a problem at all. rear The GoodsWith about ~70% usage on a single core out of four, this little J5005 doesn’t do too terribly. File Copy – CIFS I wanted something that was similarly low power usage, and I wasn’t really looking to spend too much, especially since it was my own silliness that killed the last one. The Hardware You can use Wyse Management Suite for central management of Wyse VDI clients. These management suites can be obtained from Wyse, but neither came with the system and I did not work with either of them while testing the device. Conclusion For the remainder of the time that I worked with the Wyse 5070, I configured it to connect to the Lenovo P27 4K monitor and the Dell 24” U2412M monitor. I used a local Horizon virtual desktop to do my daily tasks. The Horizon virtual desktop ran Windows 10 (1607), and had 2 vCPUs, 8 GB of memory, and 50 GB of NVMe SSDstorage.

Towards the left, you see the blue USB internal header that could be used for an internal USB drive.

Carbon Footprint Impact

The reason the choosing a thin client was power consumption, the APU drew about 6w in normal operation and the 5070 pulls about 15w but with PCIe NIC and an M2 SSD. Plus a lot more CPU grunt. One difference between them lies in the integrated graphics: The Celeron supports Intel UHD Graphics 600 and the 'extended' (wide) item - Regulatory model N12D. There are also two CPU options. The size/type

As above I'm now running 2.4.5 on a Dell Wyse 5070 Extended (Pentium Silver J5005, 4GB RAM, 120GB WD Green M2 SSD).

Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro. The highest usage I saw was during boot where it hit a whopping 15 watts. Oh, and I’m dangling an additional SSD off a SATA wire to use temporarily as a boot drive since I was doing other testing with this server, so that 5.7 watts includes this guy: sata wire
