How much juice does a mac mini and external HD pull?

My Power Mac draws about 500 watts, a Mac Mini is going to use significantly less, and external HDDs use very little. 800 watts is more than enough for those two devices.

Don't forget to add in any other devices such as monitor and such. My little 800w Honda does OK, but it takes surprisingly few devices to max it out.
