hi guys, quick question about HDD power consumption:

i'm planning to buy a new hard disk.. minimum 1TB. probably Caviar series.

Currently I have 2 hdds in my PC, with a GTX650 Ti Boost, 4GB ram and an i5 Lynnfield 2.8GHz processor, powered by a Corsair TX650 PSU.

is it safe for me to add another HDD without compromising system stability (power wise)?

many apologies if this seems to be a stupid question. I just want to be sure.. thanks many many thanks in advance!

Nothing to worry about mate. Your PSU is even capable of powering up an AMD R9 290X. thumbup.gif
