It's your motherboard that the psu plug's into, and as long as your motherboard has a 24 or 20 pin power connect, then yes.

No. It does not provide a connection any devices. It will however use POE if available which will eliminate the need for the power supply.

Yes. The power converter built into the plug is dual voltage. You'll need the pin converter, though.

No direct connection to power supply necessary or possible. Whether your existing power supply will be adequate is more a question of how many hard drives and other components are powered by it.

Nothing else should be required on the PSU side of the equation ... However, you need to have the Power and Reset switches PROPERLY plugged into the "cpanel" pin-stack at the edge of the motherboard. Unfortunately the correct connect sequence isn't always intuitive ... sometimes the connections aren't "across" the 2x2 pins, but "along" each array.

No, it will need to get power from USB cable. Meanwhile, it will also need to get signal and drawing through computer's support.

Yes,just make sure the power button is on.It's the crescent shaped one at the top of your unit with the power icon.

It doesnt require a power connector from psu, draws its power straight through the motherboard. Not sure about power requirements, i have a 480 watt psu and im running lots of accessories off it with no problems- tower with illuminated panels and cooling fans, neon light in tower, auxiliary blower motor, and sound card. system is a second gen i5 cpu w/ 8 gigs ram. You should be ok, unless you start putting all these lights into it.

Yes it needs power. Be sure and push the on/off butting to turn it on. There will be a small blue light show up for each USB you may have plugged in. I haven't had any problems and love it. Very fast with USB 3.

it comes with 2 power connectors 2 6pin which can be pluged in the power supply. i only use one of them and the other 6 pin on my psu on mine works grate so u need 2 6 pin it comes with them though just make sure your psu can hold them.. GL

It only connects to 3-Pin fans. Also if you used something like this with your fan you will not get to use the PWM features, as the fan can't be modulated if connected directly to the PSU (Unless there is a dial on the fan).

Mine didn't, it is plugged into the monitor which provides the power. It's perfect for my setup. I think there's another version of this out there somewhere which has the power supply though, I am pretty sure I saw it when I was shopping for this.

no, it is not necessary to turn on the psu. I have not connected and mine is working.

All mother board power connects are near the same u will be fine as long as it isn't a server mother board. Which it isnt

Yes. Leave it on. In fact, if there is a power failure the whole re-booting, re-linking process needs to start over again from step-1. It's an overly complicated and one can tell Philips designed it, not Apple.
