Have you actually measured the wall power consumption?
My drives will most of the time be in idle I think so getting idle power down is worth the while.
Otherwise, the LM2596S-5.0 seem like a pretty nice idea.
Can you run two of them in tandem (worrying what happens if you did not match the voltage on both to 100%) or just have one for 4 drives, a second one for another 4 drives?
