Power supply for many hard drives?

[Kakumba]

So, I am looking at building a new file server, which means somewhere between 12 and 20 hard drives. As such, I am wondering what power supply to get, because while that may not be a huge amount of power during day to day use, it IS a lot at spin up, and that is a lot of connectors needed.

So, any suggestions?

Just check with the Tagan BZ Series.

sweet, looks like the 1100W unit will do the job with some molex to sata adapters. Thanks for that.
