Yes the power for them runs off the DVD drive.

You are stealing power from your dvd drive, that is very bad.

You will run into problems very soon. The only way to not run into problems and still use this porduct is wire it up another power source (there is a few good sources near the part you plug the power supply in).

I would fix it ASAP, draining power from the dvd drive is very dangerous.

Yes i know thats the way it was designed but you can mod it to run off another power source.

I can not wait untill you, DigitizedSoldier, moan about the problems you are going to have...then i can say 'I told you so'.

Why do have to be so rude man. I sounds like you are wishing that digitizd has problems just to make you feel like you were right. What if doesn't have any problems. What are you going to say then?

I'm jut warning him. He is taking power from a dvd drive of course he will have problems.

Just head over xbox-scene and they will also say he will have problems. Anyways, take power from the dvd drive if you want.

I'm off.

I highly doubt that fan is going to put that much strain on the dvd drive power supply. Your probably one of those idiots that had your Xbox 360 lit up like a fricken Christmas tree with like 250 super bright led's and fried your motherboard or power supply or something. You sound like you still belong over there at Xbox-scene with all the other naysayers and wannabee's. Just my personal opinion which I have every damn right to express so if one of my posts gets deleted again by one of you administrators at least have the balls to tell me which one of you did it. Kapish?
