Would you risk it?

Ive got 5 hard drives, 1 Floppy, a firewire card, old geforce card, and 3 fans running in an athlon 750 t-bird. Im wondering if you think adding a sixth hard drive will kill my rock-solid Enermax Whisper 330W psu. here are the current voltage stats without the additional drive installed, taken twice.


Voltage Sensor(s)
CPU Voltage : 1.73V
Aux Voltage : 3.41V
+3.3V Voltage : 3.41V
+5V Voltage : 5.11V
+12V Voltage : 12.46V
-12V Voltage : -12.61V
-5V Voltage : -5.50V
Standby Voltage : 5.16V
Battery Voltage : 3.22V

So what do you think? the drive is a 175 gb, i believe 5400 rpm.

you only live once....
Just don't connect the bread toaster....
LOL and Good Luck
(nobody can tell you with a high degree of certainty whether
you can add the drive or not.)
