please help.
thanks

why don't you buy a splitter for the power supply ?
power supply for the harddrive or the cd rom is 12V exactly what you need for an extra fan, with a sata splitter you can connect an extra fan ! you'll need to find one or make one yourself !
not difficult if you know what you're doing!

cheers, Louise.

Hi,

I found this on a website:
http://www.lindy.co.uk/cables-adapters-c1/i-o-c125/sata-c128/0-3m-sata-extension-splitter-cable-combined-data-power-internal-p3783

I just think it's a little overkill but at least it gives you some options.
One would fit into you hard drive, one to the power supply and then one of the white ones for your fan !

cheers, Louise.
