Good evening!

You need a server for round-the-clock operation with minimal power consumption.

Requirements:
Minimum power consumption (no more than 15 W).
x86 (or amd64) compatible.
2 USB ports
Ethernet port (better than 2)
You can actually buy in the capital (a stone in the garden of domestic "for departmental" developers, there is not enough evil for them)

Thank you in advance.

UPD Thanks to everyone for the answers, but, as I understand it, none of the options fit into 15W. eight(

Yesterday I saw a video on youtube where, when writing to a server, it consumes 40W, or rather, it, a router, a hub, a second router. When reading (viewing on TV and copying) consumes 15W.
Now I'm also looking at this: OpenMediaVault on HP Proliant N40L

Look at Mini-ITX format boards, for example here .

Sorry for the 2nd post, something Habr does not clear the comment field after publication, I thought it was a preview.

We discussed a compact server, including a motherboard with a built-in atom. look at it, but both in the board and in the hp server, which they offered 1 network card each, there is an external possibility. habrahabr.ru/qa/20411/

Somehow they mentioned an interesting mumko:

If you can do without a second lan, take a nettopchik - they are inexpensive and are everywhere, for example, amis (sold in DNS's under the porto brand)

You can take a board on amd e-350. Comparison with the atom in terms of energy consumption.

Pyshch . The second network card will have to be plugged into PCI-e, but I have not seen analogues of this thing. 6 SATA ports.

Asus AT5NM10T-I
Inexpensive, enough performance. No cooler.
There are also mini itx boards from asus for Sandy Bridge processors with a built-in WiFi module - this is the quality of the second interface.

Foxconn NT-A3500 The

If you need cheap, then contact any computer service center and ask to sell a “half-book” - a 2-3 year old laptop with a broken or dead matrix, 2-4 Giga RAM, 2 cores and SATA HDD 160-320GB. Usually they leave for 4-6t.r.
If need be angrily, I liked the Lenovo Q180. I got the memory up to 4, changed the HDD to SSD and plus the replacement of thermal interfaces on the radiator. Slightly tighten the cooler speed for night comfort. Will fit in 15t.r. with 1 LAN, 2 USB3.0, 4 USB2.0 If you remove the top cover of the case and put a decent piece of copper, it will be completely silent.

x86 and 15 watts - "this is fantastic son"
40 watts - miniitx solutions, and the second network card is added by the board. The ideal solution, whatever one may say, both in terms of price and availability ...
