Not sure why this doesn't exist. I don't need 12TB of storage. When I had a Google account I never even crossed 15GB. 1TB should be plenty for myself and my family. I want to use NVMe since it is quieter and smaller. 2230 drives would be ideal. But I want 1 boot drive and 2 x storage drives in RAID. I guess I could potentially just have 2xNVMe and have the boot partition in RAID also? Bonus points if I can use it as a wireless router also.

Power doesn't cost the same everywhere

Yes, I'm in Europe with this Ukrainian/Russian mess whatever you're paying I can assure you I'm paying more than most people reading this and you don't see me freaking out about a mini PC. Even if you multiply everything above by 4 (and that will certainly go over wtv someone is paying right now) you'll sill be talking about a very little money compared to everything else you're running in our houses.

While I agree 25W is not much, I pay around 1€ for 1W a year (Croatia) and I know there are countries that pay way more thn that. Still, we are talking about power that is close to SBC consumption, you cant go much lower. I think number of devices (drives etc) are more important than actual CPU idle power

Yes, or even the BIOS setup, some of those machines allow to disable CPU cores and un-used hardware.
