[QUOTE="zicoz, post: 861265, member: 24585"] Finally remembered to pick up a wattmeter, and here are the results: Main chassis without harddrives: about 100 watt Main chassis with harddrives: about 190 watt Both chassis + downloadserver: about 270 watt These are idle meassurements, during boot I meassured almost 350 watt on the main chassis. So it's not too bad considdering it also works as a heater for the room it stands in. But I've now managed to get my hands on a Supermicro X9SCM-F motherboard and I might be looking to put that in the main chassis with one of the 35w Sandy-Bridge CPUs over time. I should also look into spinning down the drives that aren't in use. [/QUOTE]
