RE: Re: [OT] External Hard Disk



I was just *REALLY* surprised having never bothered measuring it (lets

it - the server itself has just grown as storage needs expanded) ... I was
expecting 500 watts or more!

I'm in the process of rationalising all my storage over to 1Tb drives so I
would obviously expect that figure to come down quite a lot.
