if you’re ok with the idle power consumption

I'm kind of not. I don't need a ton of drives, and I certainly don't need them to be NVMe. I just want 2-4 SATA drives for storage and 1-2 NVMe drives for boot, and enough RAM to run a bunch of services w/o having to worry about swapping. Right now my Ryzen 1700 is doing a fine job, but I'd be willing to sacrifice some performance for energy savings.
