Enclosures that handle "up to 400GB" hard drives - what happens if you stick in a 500MB drive?
#10
Larry has it right according to what I've read on the issue.
Spike voltage spin-upissues are discussed ALL over the internet with High capacity drives. Apparently Seagate(which I love) take the most power to spin up. Some computers may even have trouble booting if their power supplies can't come up with that initial spin-up voltage-especially if you want to put multiples in there. Search it on the web if you have concerns.
