I’ll just come out and say it: 50W. I know, I know an order of magnitude above what’s actually needed to host websites, media center and image gallery.

But it is a computer I had on-hand and which would be turned on a quarter of the day anyway. And these 50W also warm my home, although this is less efficient than the heat pump, of course.

What’s your usage? What do you host?

    0.12kWh / h normally (120W). I’m also running 6 HDDs in raid10 so the spin down time is not optimal.

      That’s energy, not power. If that’s the energy consumption per hour, then that’s 120W, which is high but not outrageous with a full size computer with 6 disks.

        Correct. I assumed a normalized kWh rating would be better than any instantaneous measurement I had on hand.
