i just bought a http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=56-101-463&depa=0 and i fear that i have to many devices for a 250W powersupply to drive. Anyone know if bigger power supplys for shuttles exist? a 300W or higher would be fine. Thanks

Hehe yeah, I saw up to 1300w power supplies made by Cisco, Antec sells a 350w for 50 bucks or so (USD) (Antec 350W ATX Solution Series Power Supply)
Just ask your nearest computer seller, he's gonna be happy to sell you :)
Have a nice day !

IMO, those little boxes are a waste of money - but to each, his own. It comes supplied with a 250 watt PSU so apparently, they feel that's enough. It's not like you can add numerous hard drives, optical drives, fans, PCI cards, etc. What's gonna be your major power drain?

Amperage on the +12v may be a bigger concern. I couldn't make out the label on the side of the PSU in the pic at newegg. Do you know what it's rated at?
