Power Supplies
It's not pretty, but if you can scrounge a couple of basic 200W or 250W power supplies, you can use one to run your system board and one to run your drives.
I did this on my home machine until my HDDs started on fire, thus removing the need for two power supplies.
Okay, those of you who are laughing to yourselves 'Nick is enough of a geek that his Frankenstein computer started itself on fire,' you can just cut it out. It wasn't funny.
Alright, it was.
Anyway, if you use one of those monitor power cords from one supply to the other, you can turn the entire machine on with one switch.
I think I can provide you with one supply, but the wattage is currently unknown. Probably in the 200-250W range.
