We tested the peak power consumption of a NAS at the wall during a run of CrystalDiskMark 5.0.2 as this version of the benchmark runs the read and write benchmark suites separately so its easier to monitor what power the device is using during each function.

The AS3102T uses Intel's N3050 CPU which, with a TDP of only 6W makes it a power efficient NAS even with a pair of 8TB drives installed.
