Power Consumption

Let us now check on how much power the TS-451 needs in sleep, idle, and during heavy throughput.

We use a GW Instek GPM-8212 power analyzer for all of our power-consumption measurements.

Sleep, Idle and Load

The Celeron J1800 not only proved an excellent performer, but was also incredibly efficient, which had the TS-451 consume little power in even tough situations. The highest reading our power meter took was 40 W, which is amazing for NAS of such high performance.

Power Consumption in Standby Mode

Vampire power, or phantom load, is the amount of power a device consumes when it is switched off, but still plugged into the power grid. According to the ErP Lot 6 2013 directive, vampire power should be below 0.5 W.
