The 9405W cards I most recently tested seem to consume about 7W steady state (which is more than the Pi that was driving it!), so yeah... they're still not quite as efficient as running a smaller SATA card if you just need a few drives. But if you want SAS or Tri-mode (NVMe/SAS/SATA) and have an HBA or RAID card, this is a decent enough way to do it!
