Hello everyone. I just finish building my first home media server, everything works fine. Now I'm trying to reduce power consumption now it idles at 33W with HDD spin down and 43 with disk spin up. I just followed the suggestions in this post but while executing powertop I'm not getting any readings for CPU Pkg (HW). My build is the following: Intel i3 10th Gen 10100 Gigabyte H410M S2H V2 with F3 BIOS Cooler Master MWE 80+ Bronze V2 650W WD_Blue_SN570_1TB nvme cache WDC WD101EDBZ-11B1DA0 10TB for Array Patriot Memory 32GB Boot Device The case is a BitFenix Nova MESH M-ATX ARGB with an extra Be Quiet! 80mm Pure Wings 2 PWM for the drives area So what I am missing to make powertop able to improve my power consumption? *EDIT: It seems I was missing an option in the BIOS to allow the OS to make power saving changes, so now its achieving pc8 state idling 21W and stable 34W with dockers and HDD spinning. Lets see if I can reduce it further.
