question lang... dili bani siya maka guba (espicially sa mga platter disk) kay abrupt man gud ang power disconnection

Here`s a simpler version master using only a see saw (Toggle, Slide or Rocker basta DPDT) switch available at ACE hardware or lowe`s kung na nga store diha

kani nindot ni cya. ako ra question ba 2 ra ka molex connector makaya ang 6 hard drives? d ba kuwangan ang power?

og kaning rocker switch DPDT lahi ba circuit diagram if naay light kung i-on?

you missed something on my description sir

Of course I know that I can only switch ON/OFF the hard drives when I power off the system, as this is to prevent data loss/corruption, but if there's another circuit that would disable the ON/OFF functionality if the system is currently ON then mas nice pa jud.

in short, all you have to do is select a switch position (whatever hard drives you would like to use) before turning on your PC but never turn the hdd selector switch/switches off if the computer is ON ky mao na mka guba.

Kaya ra sa duha sir... >>> Link



about sa switch with light murag di na pwede magamit diri nga application sir kay usually single throw ra na mostly ang mga baligya, nya kung makasugat sad kag double throw mag conflict (7V) sad ang bulb (bati sad kay dili LED) mismo sa 12V ug 5V lines, kung gusto ka mag light butangi na lang ug LED nga naay resistor para naay indicator ang kada switch.

E off/on raman nimo while OFF ang PC bro, so tabla ra ug nag ibot2x ka sa cable, but less hassle.

kadyot lang... nalibog lagi ko bem? ako na notice sa switch ky ang 12v ra man (yellow wire)... then sa diagram ni KH0UJ the 5v (red wire) mag go through pa man sa switch... so pasabot ani 12v ra ang mag power on sa hard drive?
