Comment on It's been almost a decade: Give us more base Google One storage already
KrummsHairyBalls@lemmy.ca 7 months agoI personally have a kill-a-watt. A device that measures how many kWa it uses.
Then I see how much it uses per day (you can leave it plugged in to test longer, or you can do like an hour and times that by 24), and see how much my power company charges per kW.
It’s actually pretty fun. Devices that you think would be pretty expensive to run end up being pretty cheap, and the things that you think would be pretty cheap end up being pretty expensive.
Like my AC unit is cheaper than my NAS. Never would’ve guessed it.

Your AC IS CHEAPER than your NAS? There’s no way, what kind of NAS are you even running??

Just an i7-3770K, GTX 980, 8 HDDs, 2 SSDs.
My AC is some fancy new shit. No idea how it works so well and uses less than my NAS. Blew my mind.
