TK521 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Is this the best method of powering these? http://www.welovemacs.com/9227128.html ? Know of a better/cheaper method? I rigged up a weirdo cord to plug into the sata power port where my hard drives go, but now im using 4 harddrives soo.... Hi there, just thought I would let you know that you could use the same cable that powers your discs drives. It takes a bit of work, but once you do it its worth it. I have 2 discs drives, 2 hard drives, a series of lights, and my X1900XT be powered by that one cable. Its been almost a year now and no problems with power. I basically ran an extension cable down from the disc drives to the other various parts listed above. You can browse through some of the work that I have done for a better idea. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. http://www.fieryjackproductions.com/mymacmods/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/71277-8800-gtsgtx-mac-pro-taskforce/page/2/#findComment-682209 Share on other sites More sharing options...
