Doesn't need a whole lot of power, my 1.83GHz C2D in my laptop can run just about anything I need it to, and the Sempron will be faster once unlocked and should still run on very little power.
I haven't checked hard drive prices in a while, have they gone down? There was some serious flooding in Taiwan which caused HDD prices to spike, the 1.5TB WD Black I bought for $120 was nearly $400 last I checked... |
No, HD prices are still up. I just had to order about 10 HD's of each type as spares for work. Prices were still sky high.
