A hard drive and SSD draw like 25 watts

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Yeah, they don't draw a lot of power really. What other things are you running? As long as you calculate the wattage for everything else on the system, those hard drives should be very little to nothing. @he11cey 

 

Forgot to mention, PCPartPicker is a good website that gives you pretty good readings on what wattage your system will run at. I definitely recommend checking that out. It even calculates everything the wattage for everything you place in the list. Just search the parts you have and add them. 

 

Sorry if it keeps on sending notifications, I keep updating it. This should be the last one on this post at least.
