    External Hard Drive power supply

    Thanks for the help. What is the difference between 12V @ 3 amps and 12V @3.3 amps, and will it make a difference for this power supply? If it doesn't matter, I think I'll go with the one from bgmicro. Now I just need to cross my fingers and hope that the PS was really the problem. peace, sean.
