splicing molex connectors
Hey.
What's everybody's opinion on my splicing a couple of device power cables onto one of the lines that comes out of my 300-W power supply, so as to let me have up to 5-6 IDE devices (with added controller, of course; my power supply has only 4 + FDD). It'd look something like this, below. I know that I can buy the connectors, but I did this on a Friday night after the new hardware arrived and wonder if I can keep it. I've secured the splice with twist ties. Thanks, jc Power Supply ------------------------------------ / \ / \ / \ | | | | | | Splice - /| | / | _ | _ / | / \ | / \ / | / \ | / \ / |/ \ |/ \ | |---| |---| |---| |---| | | | | | | | | | | |___| |___| |___| |___| | | | | | | _ | / \ | / \ |/ \ |---| |---| | | | | |___| |___| |
