Guys the mini harddrive will consume much less power than the flash. Don't think that just because it has moving parts it is more power hungry. Do you know what consumes the MOST power in your machine over the time it is on.. the RAM.. Yes harddrives draw big AMPs at start up but once the momentum is working it's real easy to keep the disks spinning.
