Mike,
Thanks for the feedback, I hope I have now rectified matters in the guide?

I don't totally agree with this because we do see people saying they've got "parts in a drawer, can I build a NAS?". But you are right, they'd be out of their tiny little mind to consider it.
Hopefully the "Build your own NAS" section gives a clearer picture on the potential solutions and power recommendations?
I've left NTM's power calculation in the "go green" section as I feel its valid to put people off reusing an old PC to build a NAS.
Let me know if you feel I've missed anything?
