Easy ferrite tweak using granite digital power supplies

Mark here is an interesting/easy way to test ferrites (for those that haven't tried ferrites)and a nice way to use those unused granite digital power supplies. Take one of these gd's solder in some fast caps (small value oscons for example) into the pata conector (2 inners are grounds 2 outers are + 5v and 12 volt supplies). Now put some Radio Shack ferrites before and after the caps (to get a pi filter). Then put some ferrites on the ac feed to the gd. Now try the gd on a hdd in your cmp...real nice sq pop.

I replaced one of my antec fed hdd's with this setup and it is better. The antec is fully pi filtered.
