I have a pro-6 located with my network core (2 routers - FIOS Actiontec and a high-end Netgear R6300, and a 24 port GS724 switch). All are on the UPS, which says the current draw is 89 watts. I can't tell the split, but I am sure that most of this is from the NAS.
In a different part of the house I have an NV+ and a Duo (both v1). The current draw is 56 watts.
All three NAS are fully loaded with disks.
