    Between 3 machines and a USB disk(160gb) ive got 600Gb. Didn't realise untill now i had so much...The two 120s are raid 0. One 160 for backing up etc. One 160 in a Xbox and 40 in my laptop. more if i include the 10gig disks and smaller i have dumped around.

    120+120+160+160+40=600Gb

    I use a Tagan 480W PSU. It is high quality and can easily handle a lot of drives. There is also the OCZ range (520W and 600W would easy do it) and the Enermax range. There a few good PSU's out there.
