Hey guys I currently have a server that is an HP with 2 gb of ram 2.66 AMD dual core processor.......... I want to do a RAID 5 so I am getting a new motherboard for my own computer and throwing it in this one, I have a 400w power supply in the HP and a 600w in my computer, if I want to RAID 5 4 teabytres and have one 120 gb for the OS with a crappy PCI video card... How many watts do you think I need?

Thanks in advance.
 
It depends how many drives you are using to acchieve 4tb's of storage.

I'm going to assume you are using 1tb drives, so I'd say basically anything decent will do. HX620.
