Power Supply question...

livEwirE

Hi all,

Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question but a what happens if you run out of power cables on your power supply inside your case and you want to install something like an extra sata hard disk? Is there anything you can do other than having to unplug another device. I've seen cases advertised on websites which say you can fit 5-6 hard disks inside them but I cannot see how you could possibly install this number of sata hard disks without running out of power connections?

Hope this makes sense and again apologies if this is a dumb question

Cheers,

Cheers,

you can get a splitter(double-adapter) for the power cables.
Most computer hardware places sell them €5
