Comment on Got myself some energy monitoring Zigbee plugs and made an interesting discovery
catloaf@lemm.ee 1 week agoI’m surprised! Seems like it should be more, but I haven’t done any wattage calculations in a while, so maybe power efficiency really has gotten that much better.
Do you know if the drives were spun up or down at the time? I know idle vs. active makes a difference, but if they were spun down entirely, that’s kind of cheating.

I watched it as it booted, didn’t pull much more than 150 watts. But it’ll be interesting to see how it goes over time.
