How many hdd on a 450W PSU?

[luser]

Hi all!

Got a comp that's only for storage that includes 7 hdds on a Abit K7-RAID and a 450W PSU. I'm thinking of buying a IDE interface card to be able to add more hdds. The question is though if the PSU can handle it? What ya think. Installed in the comp is just a network card and a simple S3 4MB agp graphics card.

Yes, the PSU will probably handle it.

AMD technology + Intel technology = Intel/AMD Pentathlon IV; the <b>ULTIMATE</b> PC processor

What is the brand of your PSU?

It's a enermax... paid quite a considerable sum for it, so it's pretty high quality, i presume

I ran 7 drives on my 250W unit for years!

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
