Hi....

i would like to buy an hdd 1TB for my existing system... is it ok to hav 3 hdd's with this smps????

my current config...

processor - e5200
board - Intel g31pr
ram - 4GB
HDD1 - 320GB - samsung
HDD2 - 1TB - samsung
smps - zebronics 450W
DVD writer - LG.

Yeah its fine. Just don't buy a GPU with this PSU installed.

A modern day HDD consumes max of 2watt power under full use....Just don't add a GPU and it will run fine.

Thank U Gaurav Bhattacharjee ... & thetechfreak...

I dont hav the need for GPU.. so am not going to buy...

going to buy samsung 1TB...

Is it 7200RPM..??? Post its prices too.
