Excellent! The case I have has no option but to be powered from the USB. Fine on my Dell but means it is unusable on the Compaq. In fact I can even get away with a standard USB cable whilst it is powered from mains but even the double-up cable is insufficient on the Compaq. At least you have the option to run from an additional PSU. Good choice.
