Sata 80g 7200RPM Hard Drive
1g RAM
CD/DVD/CDR Recorder/player

Will this Power Supply work good for me and provide enough juice as well as connectors? I chose this one from Newegg because of the customer reviews and cost.

If something is better for my application and around the same cost, please advise.

Thanks in advance!
