Well, yeah it should. Are they high performance drives tough, like Western Digital Raptors?

No, just standard 3-4TB 7200rpm WD/Seagate

I mean, if you're powering just those drives and like an AMD A10 then it's a little overkill but it's fine, what you plan on doing.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

They should consume about 9-12 watt at max load each, so as long as the remainder of the parts are relatively efficient, you should be totally fine :p.

 

It is powering my whole system with an Ivy bridge i3, Radeon 5450, a fan controller and a SATA controller card.
