I have Sparkle 300W PS (ATX). I want to add an additional HD collers (two of them). See what I already have:

4 Hard drives( 2 7200 + 2 5400 RPM)
2 SCSI CD-ROMs
3 Fans
SCSI card
Modem
Sound Card

Is my PS strong enough to handle an additional load of 6 small fans in HD coolers and if not is it gonna cause any damage to my components???

-Maxtor 40gig HD
-10x DVD
-CD-RW
-MB & CPU
-192MB of RAM
-16MB Rage VC
-16MB V3
-Big 5" Case Fan

Hehe... lots of stuff. Not to mentio USB.
