Alot of cheap PSU have around 12A on the 12v rail(the one that powers HDD etc) where as a good PSU will have upwards of 20A. The greater the amps the more drives that can be connected. A low quality 500w PSU is worse than a high quality 320w PSU. Good brands include Enermex, Antec, Thermaltake, the PSU's in iCute cases arent bad for a cheapie and Hyena are absolutely dreadful. The 320w Enermex are normally more than enough for the average user but if you want a lil extra juice a 420w Antec or Enermex will see you right	Pete O'Neil (250)
