Power consumption math - Mentaluproar - 11-21-2019

I’m retooling my rockpro64 NAS and considering things I want to do to it eventually that I couldn’t pull off this time around. I’m trying to plan for increased power draw since as is I cannot boot from usb3, even with a powered usb hub. Only USB2 boot works and this has supposedly been traced to the rockpro64 not getting enough power. 

If I were to bump this to 4 hard drives and a Marvell sata card (those are stable now, right?) what would the power draw be at peak with gpu?
