Storing 2 petabytes in 64GB shards is a breeze. Multiply your 0.07 W or 2W to match single 12 TB hdd, where is the power saving? Spinning disks do not consume

Spinning disks do not consume anything while idling. They spin down or are in not even connected.
10W is enough
power to fly quadcopter, way too much to maintain spin on disk plates.
- hashworks 5y agoWhile I agree with you, one normally does not spin down raid disks.
