Power supplies are generally matched to the number of devices that draw current from them. If you add a device beyond the 4 it was designed for, your PS may not have enough oomph (dontcha love those technical terms?) to supply it with the current it requires. (This assumes that all devices will be in use at the same time.) Of course, you can always get another power supply with a higher wattage rating.
