Power Supply for multiple disks?

2000-04-06 Thread Sven Kirmess
I'm playing a bit with Linux RAID and now I have a question about the power supply. When I use 3 or 4 modern IDE drives I guess they will consume a lot of energy. Do I need a special power supply like 300 W or what are you using? What about "IDE power down when idle"? Can this blow up the power

Where to get power supply?

2000-04-06 Thread David Bradford
Speaking of power supplies, I've been looking for one for my homemade external RAID box. Right now I'm using an old AT PS that I'm sure is going to croak any day. Anybody know where I can get a cheap datacase-type PS with the on/off switch on the PS itself?
