[1] The ioDrive Duo is fully compliant with the PCIE 2.0 bus
specification of 25 watts and does not require external power. If
external power is made available to the ioDrive duo, the maximum write
throughput may increase. Any external power source attached to an
ioDrive Duo by the external power connector must provide at least 35
Watts per device
Note: This reflects typical power draw at 25° C ambient temperature. Add 3 watts draw when
running at the ioDrive's maximum temperature of 50° C ambient temperature. Future product
power needs may vary.
