3 Electrical requirements PSU requirements Internal and rack-mounted drives The drives are specified to operate at 5V±5% and 12V±10%. Any PSU used to power the drive must be capable of providing 5V nominal (when the drive pulls 5A on the 5V rail) and 12V nominal (when the drive pulls 2A on the 12V rail). HP recommends a 10% buffer when selecting a power supply source capable of delivering the amperage and power required. SCSI Drives FC Drives Specification 5V 12V 5V 12V Maximum voltage 5.25V
