Hi..
I've been reading this forum for quite some time. Currently I have a Asus E2KMI-Deluxe as my HTPC and NAS. This machine has Windows 8.1 installed and MySQL-Server has database for XBMC. I have a rasperryPI in my room. I think that it's time to change my HTPC. The HTPC also have a Virtual machine running linux for downloads. So i think i reached the point to replace my HTPC/NAS. Currently I have a 120 GB SSD for SO and 4 HDD to my movie collection.
My doubt is between AMD A8 7600 and AMD Athlon 5350. I already have an AMD A8 7600 here at home and it draws 23 W from the wall with an SSD.
Soon i will have to buy more HDD, because the ones i have are almost full.
Anyone here has an AMD A8 7600 has HTPC/NAS that can tell me how much it draws from the wall? I would prefer the A8 because motherboards have more SATA ports. AM1 platform has a maximum of 4 SATA ports.
What do you think?
Thanks in advance and sorry about my English.
