Ok, what weekend wouldn't be complete without me asking some 
off-the-wall question?  Here's my latest quandry:  I have a PC thats 
acting as a fileserver.  I have about 6-8 hard disks in it, but alas, my 
power supply will only let me connect about 5 devices.  So, I'm sitting 
here looking at an AT power supply that's just collecting dust, and I'm 
wondering if I can connect it to some of the drives, connect the grounds 
together, and connect the +5 and +12 lines to each other corresponding 
line on the other power supply.

Are there any EE's out there that can tell me the consequences of doing 
this?  

Can this work, or am I going to find myself in a mist of magic computer 
smoke?

Thanks again...!
