I’m going to try to unplug these. But even if I remove 20W from the 2 HDDs, there are still 25W which seem a lot

I don’t know much about hardware. I used these suggestions: https://forums.serverbuilds.net/t/guide-nas-killer-6-0-ddr4-is-finally-cheap/13956
I built a NAS where I can put 6 HDDs, there are enough plugs on the PSU.
Do you think the PSU is the issue?
Thanks that would be cool. Also if you can tell me if this is a NUC or something larger.
I guess I’ll do this if I don’t find a way to reduce the power consumption
Unfortunately this is idling after boot. While booting it jumps to 70W and I haven’t seen it go below 45W idling…
I’m using an EVGA 500 W1
Thanks. So If I take 5W a disk, I may have 20W just from the disks.
There are still 25W remaining. For a low power CPU that looks like a lot 😕
I have checked but I haven’t seen anything about power. By any chances, do you know in what category it may be?
Yes this is where I first heard of mergerfs/SnapRAID. But I didn’t realize this guide wasn’t using any software on top of Proxmox. I’ll read again, thanks!
Thanks, I’ll check ZFS again!
How do you manage your shares?
Yes definitely. This is just that it was my first time assembling a PC. I had a bit of a hard time and I am not in a hurry to disassemble it 😅
That may change in a couple of days thought
