    If I remember correctly, every watt is around $1 a year. So a 100 watt server costs $100 a year every year to run. 12 SAS drives and the server is going to be expensive to keep running.

        It can also vary by time and day. I got that setup since I use more at night, but in general power companies average that throughout the day.
