@codinghorror And mW range idle. SSD will be spending small % of time writing, esp. assuming same rate as max you could write to HDD.

@RichFelker depends on the use, though! Could be a lot of reads, could be a lot of writes, could be idle most of the time.. 2.5" vs 3.5"..Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@RichFelker I reiterate that 5w for an active drive is about right.

@codinghorror Fast HDD looks like 5-15 W (http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/sas-6gb-s-hdd,2402-14.html …), so maybe not as bad as I thought, like $5-30 per year. -
@RichFelker 15w would be very extreme. 10w, perhaps. But even 15w is under $20 per year.
