Hi! Thanks for the details about RAM power consumption, very useful!

In that >> sense, it's cheaper than any NAS I can find on the market! :) > This calculation is valid if you don't factor in the electricity prices. > In most places the electricity is relatively expensive. > 0,3 kWatts (i.e. 300 Watt system) * 12 hours (1/2 day) = 3,6 kWh Maybe there is a misunderstanding, I'm precisely trying to save on electricity (and thus costs). Maybe I'm misunderstood about how power supplies work, but isn't 300W the capacity? It should not consume as much as 300W on idle, or does it? Cheers! -- Pierre Neidhardt https://ambrevar.xyz/
