[title] Time for the label / sticker | |
- | [* black] Print a label that clearly states that your drive now takes 12V DC center positive. |
+ | [* black] You are almost finished. Reassemble the case and put the screws back on. Print a label that clearly states that your drive now takes 12V DC center positive. |
[* black] Don't call this project finished without this step. Imagine this: you may give this drive to someone else in the future, or someone may inherit it, or you may take your drive to a convention and someone else may try to plug power to it, who knows. | |
[* black] You want to avoid any confusion or someone plugging in an old AC power supply. | |
[* black] For DC, you can actually go higher in voltage, all the way to 15v, even 18v. The drive will overheat, but it will work regardless, with minimal risk of damage! | |
[* black] Still, you want to stick to DC, not AC so the label is a MUST. |
