If you are a real hardcore gamer with more than 2 video cards in SLI and lots of hard drives or older equipments that consume higher wattages, you may want to upgrade to a 850W or higher

And then when it crashed it took our hard drive with it.

and I have several internal and external Hard Drives including a 2T external hard drive and this Corsair Rmi Series ,RM750i power supply takes good care of it all with out any issues so if you need a powerful Power Supply then this could be what your looking for

8gb 3200 corsair ram, 2 2tb hard drives, 1 500bg m.2 drive, 3 case fans, and a corsair 105 hydro cooling system, and so far it has been more than smooth sailing.

Suspecting there may be something wrong with the new drive, I pulled a known-good drive from a decommissioned system and connected only the mobo leads and the drive to the PSU

I had a pretty low output of a sandy bridge i3 cpu not over clocked, a few hard drives, and a supper effient video card 777 series ATI.

I installed a GeForce GTX 1050 TI graphics card and Samsung 860 EVO solid-state drive afterwards and my system is running like a new machine.

I bought the HX1000i when it first came out, and it ran in my main system for a while, but I moved it to my server as I gained more drives in the server and more power efficient components in my main system.

required power-supply capacity (watts) will depend on the CPU, video card(s), storage drives (hard drives or solid state drives), and disk drives (blu ray or DVD) that you are using

As soon as I turned it on it sounded like a REALLY BAD hard drive going out

I have a pretty power-intensive GPU and 4 IDE hard drives and 4 SSD drives, plus 8 full size fans and a DVD drive

It should be sufficient to provide power to the most demanding computers, including Video Cards used in SLI and quite a few hard drives

Has plenty of SATA plugs, peripheral (4 pin) plugs for old hard drives

Plenty of power for my OC I5 CPU, 2 ssd hard drives, 2 7200rpm hard drives, Blueray burner, DVD burner, and a GTX 970 GPU.

Testing the drive in another system shows it as unrecognized, and upon removing the PCB of the drive used to test the PSU, there is visible surge damage to both the PCB and to the casing of the HD.All in, this PSU destroyed 2 live HDs with data, an SSD with data, an optical drive, a brand new hard drive, and a sixth hard drive used for testing

However, if you are comfortable opening your case and installing cards or hard drives, you can install this yourself

Only thing was my system doesn't have any mechanical hard drives, only SSDs

This power supply had plenty of power to for an Nvidia 1070, two SSD drives, and a standard hard drive.

Corsair RM1000iMonitor: Dell UltraSharp U2410 <-- Purchased back in 2012 for Photoshop work, still going strong!Storage: Western Digital Red 8TB NAS Hard Drive

CPU cooler, 16gb G.Skill 2400 RAM, and 2 spinning hard drives

I was able to connect only one of my hard drives because the SATA cable is not

I have it running an Nvidia GTX 560, Core I7, and two hard drives without any hiccups, which I would expect on such an unassuming gaming setup.

This 750W works great with the graphics card and still have room if we get an additional hard drive or dual cards

In a landscape for PC builders where GPUs, CPUs, and hard drives fail, the PSU should be the least of all worries

First off, a modular power supply means that all of the cables you need for things like hard drives and graphics cards are connected individually

It emits a very loud crackling sounds similar to a hard drive with a broken header which struggles to write

In my case, with one Geforce 970, 6 hard drives and a bunch of USB connected items (like steering wheel), this unit delivers plenty.

For instance, hard drives will only draw much power when in use

There are no installation instructions but if you are comfortable opening your case and installing cards or hard drives, you can install this yourself

This thing went bad and destroyed a motherboard and 2 hard drives of mine

Whenever my system was under load such as in a game or watching 4K videos the system would make a clicking/chirping sound that sounded similar to a hard drive churning away moving a bunch of files

You may need some extra splitters if you are using many hard drives as I do

It's quiet and powerful enough to run my 6 hard drives and EVGA GeForce GTX 750 video card.

It turned out that I wasn't actually using all 5 SATA outputs from my old power supply, but the size of the case meant that the Optical drive was a long way from the Hard Drive and the SSD.

Excellent Power Supply!It supplies power to my system and has done so reliably for over a year!I have a GeForce 770, 16 gigs of ram, one Blu-Ray writer, one hard drive, two SSDs, and a USB dock

Unfortunately, the PSU has burned out 6 drives, two of which contain data on them that will cost over $1000 to recover

Running amd 6300 six-core, 9800gt video 8 gigs crucial ballistix memory, one western digital hard drive and a Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P motherboard; runs great no problems.

Well made and provides plenty of power for my i7 processor, dual video cards, 3 4TB hard drives and 32GB memory

After connecting the 2 hard drives, 2 optical drives, and SSD in the system, I powered it up

I wasn't able to power my hard drive with the SATA power cable in my NCase M1 (bottom mounted) because the SATA connectors weren't able to lay flat enough to plug into the hard drive

Runs my Asus motherboard 4 ram cards, amd a7 strix video card, and three hard drives

Works great with my setup which includes, mobo, processor, 2 ram sticks, 2 hard drives, a blu ray writer, a gtx 750 ti video card.

only issue is that it oly has perpendiculat connections to power hard drives so they need to be spaced out.

It has 750 total watts, and can power multiple hard drives as well as high end video and sound.
