Alright I just put in HDD and LAN activity LED's and I might add a DVD activity led. How would I go about switching all of the led's off and on with a switch? I have this nice lightd blue rocker switch I just picked up, it's 3 points and is gonna look killer on the front panel so how do I do this? I was thinking getting the power for the led's all from the 5v red cable going to the Hard Drive, would that work?

ive never done an activity light before, but if i remmeber correctly, they all go to different grounds. so just use one power source through the switch and control that.

Alright I'll do that, can I put in one resistor between the power source and the switch or do I have to put one before each led and the switch?
