- Page 12 Note: Since CD-398/DVD-399 is nine-target (10 EIDE ports on-board) controller board, the power consumption will be higher than that supplied by usual 300W power supply unit. We strongly recommend using 400W power supply unit to avoid lack of power. Lack of power supplying will cause unstable of operation and produce un-usable products.
