If your PSU doesn't have enough power to handle another drive you'd probably notice it by random shutdowns all the time. Your CPU and GPU takes up just above 300W, be crazy and say they need 400W. When doing ugly calculating you say every drive (be it HDD, SSD, DVD) uses 10W, bringing your total with the future drive to 420W. Oh, and the mobo and RAM uses some as well, the RAM is next to nothing, but the mobo might use around 50W for a normal board. So that brings us to 470W, and then we've been pretty generous.

Yes, your PSU will handle it just fine.
