Manual switch ?

[boles]

Ok i got a SATA raid 8 bay enclosure (http://www.pc-pitstop.com/sata...losures/scsat84xb.asp) that has a 300 watt PS. well the supply is gone and need replacement. Problem is that the power supply is wired directly with a switch. Is there a way rewire a ATX supply so that it can be turned on with a switch?

thanks for the help...

Put a normally-open (NO) momentary switch between the green wire and any black wire.

sweet thanks!


Over the past couple days someone talked me into ditching the external case and getting a case that holds my computer + 12 drives. Which i think i am going to do. Now i just wonder if my current PS will handle my new upgrades


e6600
12 segate HDs
7900GTX
4 gig ram
DVD burner

I have a SeaSonic S12-600.... Will this handle it with no sweat or should i upgrade? What if i upgraded to a 8800 card would i still be safe ?

As a comparison I have run a 300watt Codegen PSU with 9 HDDs, 1ghz Athlon, bottom end AGP card. It was a server, so the file space was what mattered.... Hope that helped a little.
