I wonder if my system is good or bad. My server needs 0.1kWh.

I came here to tell my tiny Raspberry pi 4 consumes ~10 watt, But then after noticing the home server setup of some people and the associated power consumption, I feel like a child in a crowd of adults 😀

    I have an old desktop downclocked that pulls ~100W that I'm using as a file server, but I'm working on moving most of my services over to an Intel NUC that pulls ~15W. Nothing wrong with being power efficient.

    I'm using an old laptop with the lid closed. Uses 10w.

    All in, including my router, switches, modem, laptop, and NAS, I'm using 50watts +/- 5.

    It does everything I need, and I feel like that's pretty efficient.
