When I was working in in hardware testing lab @ intel, this is very  
similar to what we would have to do for the mobile systems. We had  
standard IDE HDD and DVD roms hooked up to a power supply with an on/ 
off switch on the back, and just soldered the green and black wires  
together. Turned the drives on and off with the switch. The  
motherboards were powered by a 12v brick and DC-DC converter. I've  
also done this to power non-computer related 12v stuff with a spare  
power supply I had floating around from the pre P4 days.
