question - Enquiries - 11-18-2022
i was going throught your videos but I think I have found one about this topic
I currently have a ds1819 and am trying to safe as much energy as possible
have you made any comparison between the power usage of HDD and SSD drives on a fully populated nas like mine
if you have any information will be great
RE: question - ed - 11-20-2022
SSD on average use 2.5W on full use
HDD use around 4-8W with the same use case.
If you plan on saving some energy, SATA SSD will do the job. And it is much faster.
I hope this helps.
