If you don’t know, or are unsure what you are doing DO NOT PLAY WITH POWER SUPPLIES

If you don’t know, or are unsure what you are doing DO NOT PLAY WITH POWER SUPPLIES

The instructions in this link will expose you to mains powers, THIS CAN KILL YOU. These instructions tell you how to create a “lab style power supply” using an ATX power supply. You could adapt them to make a PS that could run your drives, the same caveats apply as above. (it might not work, might damage your hardware, might work fine)

Once again:
If you don’t know, or are unsure what you are doing DO NOT PLAY WITH POWER SUPPLIES
