err...the board and processors are recycled items?
how many SATA does the board have?

just thinking that a lower power consumption CPU might be better?

Everything is new except the 500GB HD.
Based on reviews on the net, the whole system of that AMD cpu + motherboard combo power consumption is not more than 35W on full load, avg 19W on idle.
The power could probably be lesser/more depending on number of hardwares used and also the efficiency of the power supply.
I do not have a power watt calculator, so I can't tell you my wattage.
This board has 2 sata ports, but could be extended by using the mini pcie port.

wont the intel J1900 or those newer N3150 do a better job at a lower power consumption?
I would prefer one with at least 4 SATA port. wont know those PCIE compatibility with NAS software and sutff.
4 SATA port at least can run RAID 5 if needed.

hope you dont mind my 2 cents.
I am planning for a DIY NAS as well, just no budget for the HDD tongue.gif
