Have a look at the intel n100 or n150 chips. I got the asrock n100dc board but that has issues with ram stability so maybe pick something else that’s not cheap aliexpress stuff. In general the chip is very capable and only draws 10w. My whole setup draws 20w with drives rpi router and fiber modem, also German prices :) also use ssds instead of hdds as they draw less and need nothing on „spinup“ as well.
