Which way does it draw more power? A12: In our testing we found the following results: - HDD off, LED off, idle 94 mA - HDD off, LED off, play 97 mA - HDD off, LED on, idle 129 mA - HDD off, LED on, play 131 mA - HDD on, LED on, play 230 mA - HD on, reading, LED off ~ 600 mA + HDD off, backlight off, idle 94 mA + HDD off, backlight off, play 97 mA + HDD off, backlight on, idle 129 mA + HDD off, backlight on, play 131 mA + HDD on, backlight on, play 230 mA + HD on, reading, backlight off ~ 600 mA HD spin up before read max 800 mA - + So leaving the unit on and paused consumes ~100mA, and thus much less than needing to reboot the unit.
