Ok I have several hard drives and between them all and my video card it is to much power for my power supply. I have several computer skeletons sitting around with power supplies in them. I was wondering if I could hook up one of the power supplies from the other PCs and run my hard drives off of that so I would not over load my power supply I have.

Possible, but it sounds like thier may be some lag in the video card if it has to run through that extra step.

Well the other hard drives are for my movies and music. I have like 300 gigs of movies and music. I was going to run my video card and main hard drives off of my main power supply.
