My QNAP was about 14W idle but wouldn't really run PHP and MySQL that well (especially if torrenting at the same time). Other old machines that I thought of running as a server were a P3 1Ghz (34W idle) and a P4 1.7Ghz (55W(!) idle). So I'm happy with 20W. Hi Patrice,

For instance, do you feel 20 watts to be particularly low ? I use actually a Pentium-m laptop that just consuming 25 watts in normal operation (speed at 800 mhz), and I still have an old Dell Pentium I, that I have tuned to be solid state and Odb that is consuming as few as 9watts... Regards, Patrice Hello,
