2011 Mac mini Power Issues


i encountered issue 2011 mac mini server when under heavy load. have lacie thunderbolt little big disk modded dual ocz vertex 3 ssds, , lacie slim bluray writer connected when archiving bluray collect. typically use dvdfab bluray copy , handbrake simultaneously. cpu load typically high on cores.

problems occur when connect portable fw800 drive backup mkvs in background while doing above. systems locks completely. have unplug mac mini outlet , wait 30 seconds mac mini boot.

behavior result of power draw? normal?
 

sounds pulled power.
lbd pulls power via t-bolt cord.
blu ray player pulls power.
fw800 bus powered.
handbrake pulls lot of watts , cpu usage.

know me , have more 1 post on subject give brick option instead of cr@ppy little internal 85 watt psu. solves both heat , underpower issue. old white brick 110 watts. guess use usb external has own power.
