COMPUTEX 2007: ENERMAX Powers 18 Drives, 4 CPU Cores & Lots More Off 720W PSU

ENERMAX had its INFINITI 720W model running a box that included two Xeon 5130s, a SUPERMICRO X7DA8 motherboard, 2GiB FB DIMMs, a Promise RAID controller and 18 (yes, 18) 250GB hard drives. It's not a typical scenario, granted, but highlights just what an efficient PSU can power.

Exactly.

The Infiniti is helped by the fact that it has 257 molex and SATA connectors (and the Galaxy models even more).:surprised:
