I suppose, but I never heard of a wall socket with 5 amps. The amperage rating of anything is based on the lesser of either the wire size or the circuit breaker. Minimum wire size for residential wiring has been #14 or 15 amps for years and years. If in fact it is really a 5 amp wall socket, then your question is moot.

If we could all be sure that we could all the time control what is plugged into a wall outlet, we wouldn't need electrical codes, but someday you are going to move and whatever wiring you have will still be there, waiting for the next guy to plug in a toaster oven. Consider yourself forewarned. Lawyers love stuff like this.

How to connect two hard drives and a dvdcdrw?

Check the motherboard. You can connect two drives to a single parallel cable. Most traditional motherboards have two IDE sockets and you can run a maximum of four drives. (one cable per socket, two drives per cable) but you need to configure the drives with jumpers as "primary" and "slave". Many of the newer motherboards have a "SATA" (Serial ATA) socket or some combination of SATA and IDE but you'd have to use a SATA drive with a SATA cable to use the SATA socket.
