I'm looking to buy/build a NAS box. One of my biggest concerns is power draw and noise, which is why I'm a bit hesitant to buy a small case and build a computer. Otherwise that would be awesome, though.

I read in one of the reviews of the pre-built 4 drive models that its power draw was around 50W--is this typical? Have any of you hooked your homebrew NAS boxes up to Kill-A-Watts to check power draw?
