How old is the Gateway? Do you know if it is an AT or ATX PSU? If it is an ATX, then in order for the PSU to turn on, it has to get a signal from the motherboard or you have to fake the signal by jumpering the 20-pin connector.

Is there really no room in your case for the drives? PATA maximum cable lengths are quite short, so you are going to have to keep both cases right next to each other, if they will be able to reach at all. I don't know if this is the best way to go about solving your problem.
