If you have a machine with only 2 hard drives that aren't 10,000 or 15,000rpm drives and no other hardware that is power hungry then a 400W PSU is not needed. If your hardware is typical desktop hardware then a typical desktop PSU will be able to handle the load without any problems. If you have 15,000rpm disks then power isn't the main problem, the main problem is cooling. Remember, the majority of the electrical power gets converted into heat. The more power you use the more cooling you need. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
