Power Supply Trouble Shooting: Not enough connectors for devices

Symptom:
You don't have sufficient pwr connectors for all the devices you want to install.

Probable cause:
  • PS is undersized for your needs.
  • Or, less expensive PS sometimes come with just a few connectors

Solution:
  • Replace the PS if it is undersized
  • Use a Y adaoter to split the existing connectors if the PS is rated to handle your selection of devices.
