I monitor mine that I use as a file server at home (with an external drive), and it never gets more than 20 degrees F hotter than the room it's in, and that was under a CPU stress.
I love the heatsink design case units because they are fanless and still run really cool. Just search Amazon for "kingdel" and sort by price - low to high. There is a model available on Amazon that is a dual-core Celeron CPU that costs $249. I've never found any on the 8 of them I've installed for various clients, but there is a reviewer that claims they have. Just be sure to scan the drive with an anti-malware program. My answer for the power savings was to put them on a fanless tiny PC (I used this: Opens a new window, but that maker has cheaper ones of a similar fanless design) that only uses 15-20 watts. The only way I could ever get them networked reliably was by doing what you've done, connecting them to a PC via USB and sharing them. I have a client that has a number of different Dymo label printers.
