Look at your PowerSupply and find out the Wattage. The earlier units had
150 watts. Yours could be a 200 or 250 watt. The highest for PowerComp
Units was 300 watts to the best of my knowledge. I would assume adding
internal Hard drives, Zip/Jaz and/or a USB board that draws external
power for peripherals would stress the Power Supply.
Mike Macdonald probably could give you a better answer.
