Thanks for the data point, and the vote of confidence. I do not have the best setup to measure power draw (I just broke my dedicated smart plug), but it it may also increase power draw in my case (20 to 30 W, ERYING M-ITX 12500H + 2 nvme SSDs). Your numbers are impressive for 5 HDDs, are they 3.5"?

Anyway, it may be a transient that I am measuring, as the PC turns off during the boot sequence, after the CPU fan starts revving up. My 5A PSU may not be enough, I'll try limiting the TDP and the power brick.
