I don't know what you have for a hard drive, so I can't tell you exactly, but if you use Ohms law, you can convert Watts to Amps.<br />
<br />
You must watch Both 5 and 12 V, but I would be more concerned with the 12 V side..... &nbsp;<br />

I am planning to add a second hard disk to my computer. &nbsp;However, all the power source plugs are already being used. Should I buy another power supply with more cables or is there a way of fixing the problem w/o buying one. &nbsp; Please advise.
