Greetings.

I picked up a GVP Impact A500 hard drive enclosure like this one:

(an earlier model?)

Anyhoo, I'm looking to get a power supply for it. I've seen some threads around that say that you could use this supply:

however, it seems it's only for a 240v situation, and alas I'm in a 120v world.

another option I read about was an adapter, a CD32 to molex adapter:

The description mentions the Impact II, would it work with the earlier version of the Impact?

Could I just use a "loose" atx power supply with this? What wattage?  I can't imagine it would need much...

Seems like this should be doable, but I wanted to check in with you experts first... What say you?

Thanks!

You can just take a spare A500 psu and change the connector,it will work just fine for what you are doing.
