And please no suggestions on getting a beefier PSU as I have already dremelled out the hole for the second supply  |
ok, the way i done it, is have the main psu powering all of the hard drives an cd drives ( i found the psu that is connected to the motherboard has to be connected to the drives. BECAUSE the devices then know when to 'get ready' to shut down ) ok... and my second psu is behind the case,it has one wire coming in from an empty pci slot, powering all fans, cathodes etc.... oh.. the second psu just has a paperclip connecting the greenwire to pin 15.
( and i didnt want to cut open any wires... )
i tried a second psu to power hard drives, but the problem then, is when the cpu turns the power off, the power is still going to the hardrive...and it doesnt want it!
