  Powering a quantum (or possibly any) hard drive off your disk port can be
detrimental to a stock power supply.  After a few months mine refused to
give the drive enough power to start up.
  Now i have a heavy duty supply and i could actually use the old supply
to run the drive if i could find the right connector for the drive.
