According to https://www.martinrowan.co.uk/2019/07/raspberry-pi-4-power-temperature-at-idle/ https://www.martinrowan.co.uk/2019/07/raspberry-pi-4-power-t... and https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201897 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201897, an M1 Mac Mini idles at roughly 2x the idle power consumption of a rPi 4 with the default firmware.
My next purchase for my rack is definitely going to be an M1 Mac Mini with the RAM upgrade. This way, I can use it as a build server for Mac, Windows, and Linux (the latter two through VMs) + whatever else I want to run. It's somewhat expensive, but it does literally everything I'd ever need out of a home server.
