Ok, I made a thread about using a PS to power a bunch of fans to cool my entertainment cabinet. A user recommended I get a PS2 console power supply and just rig that to power some fans.
Well, I came upon and bought this.

And this to connect multiple fans to it.

Current, in the test phase, I'm using that to power two 92mm Vantec fans.

Now, when I connect the fans to the black 3 pin post, the fans spin fast (like full speed). But when I connect to the white posts, the funs spin noticeably slower.
Why is that?
Also, how can I tell many fans this thing can support? I've been thinking about adding a fan controller too, to control the fans. But I'm guessing that might be overkill?
EDIT* I should mentioned that I did add a Ultra fan controller (directly to the PS, the fans connected directly to the fan controller) and it worked fairly well. I just don't know how to tell how many fans it can support without blowing up or something.
