It depends. You need thorough specs. Most of the time they spec out
power use at 40% r/w, 40% seek, 20% idle. With my Seagate at those
specs, it fits the power supply as it showed .6A on the 5 volt, .68A on
the 12V. But I wonder what it is when it's doing almost probably 90%
r/w. Although I do know it requires 3A at startup.

There was a few complaints about power in the reviews for that case on
NewEgg.
