I also do not know if it is possible to purchase a PC type power supply that has surge protection on its outputs. I can comment that an even better solution to surge protection would be to add some battery holdup for the drive to help take care of supply rail brownouts.
The subject of the surge protection has been had before!! See here http://forums.cnet.com/7723-7591_102-502317.html Michael Karas |

maybe you need some power zeners | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
Surge protectors, zener + crowbar | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
a zener is too slow | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
maybe not | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
