Can a weak power supply cause coasters?

Hey

Im having a little trouble with my NEC 1300a. I know its a shitty drive, and if anyone want to trade it for a pioneer x06, id be more than happy...

But, anyways, on to my question:
I have a power supply on 300w
AMD XP 1,6+
512 DDR 400mhz
two 7200rpm hds
dvdburner, dvd-rom
two casefans and one caselightning (blue neon light cold cathode)

Can this be my problem, that my power supply is too weak?

That's what the problem seems to be you can get a good one for 30 bucks at www.newegg.com also try better media because ths nec burners are picky when it come to cheap media...

300 watts is fine.

i dunno bout that, im pretty sure i have a 300w power supply(compaq 1.1 celeron off store shelf) and i burn at 4x all day long with my burner

ok, if it aint the power supply i guess its just sucky media...
But good media is so damn expensive here in sweden!!!
