So i have a gaming computer, but i want to put in more harddrives for more space.

My current system is:

- Ryzen 5 1400
- MSI B350M
- GTX 1050Ti
- ASUS 5G Network Card
- Master Case 5
- 180GB Intel M.2 SSD
- 1 TB Seagate HDD

My power supply is a Corsair TX550M (Plus Gold)

Question is: Will my PSU handle 2x additional harddrives?

Spinning HDDs will use around 15W total. So two would be another 30W. Your build currently right now uses around 250W maybe, so even with two more drives you'll be at less than 300W. That's half of your total output so you'll be fine.
