Hi there ...

Recently ... i got a "POWER-HUNGRY" hard disk - Western Digital Caviar Special Edition 120 GB (WD1200JB) ... After i installed both hard disk ... Problems coming ... The mouse cursor seems lagging (in OS 9 and OS X) and occasionally stop at a spot (in OS X) and won't move unless i unconnect and reconnect my Apple Pro Mouse ... Sometimes ... thngs get even worse ... the mouse's optical light stop glowng ... and my keyboard don't work as well ...

I suspect that i am low in power due to the "POWER-HUNGRY" drive ... My question is … how can I get more power? Must I change the power supply? How can I change it … By the way … I only see to power supply connector available … what if I added the third hard disk? What will power the drive? Is there any hidden connector? I really need help here …

Thanks in advance! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Best regards from,
