I had to get a new PS and I got the Antec TP-II 550. Now I didnt see anywhere on Antec`s website about the number of molex connectors but I didnt think Id have a problem but I do. One rail has 3 molex connectors and the other rail has 2 molex. There are 2 other rails with SATA connectors but my PC doesnt use SATA....
So I was left with connecting 5 hard drives and 1 dvd drive on one rail via Y-splitters, and 4 drives on the other rail with y-splitters. Im not quite sure if 6 drives on one rail is ok.
What exactly would be the maximum number of hard drives on a rail? This PS handles 19A on both 12V rails. The drives are constantly in use; it`s a file server.
On a side note does anyone make a Sata-to-Molex converter? So I could use the other two rails to power my non-sata hhds.
Thanks
