[comp.sys.mac.hardware] SE/30 Screen Jitters

Hello everyone-

I recently installed a Quantum 210 ProDrive in my SE/30 and now my screen
jitters whenever there is a large amount of disk access.  Is the hard drive
drawing too much power when it makes so much disk access?  Or, is the drive
just accessing so much that it shakes the video tube (the mounting bracket
places the drive at the rear of the chassis, not directly over the floppy
drive)?  If the drive is drawing too much power, how can that be fixed?  Any
ideas are welcome via e-mail.
