Has anyone ever seen any data on how much the Amiga 2000 motherboard consumes in amps of +12 and +5? I found what the power supply is rated at but not how much a enpty 2000 uses. I'm trying to determine if I'll have enough to add a 3rd hard disk in the case on a hardcard type of frame. Heres what I have so far... Amiga 2000 will supply: +5 20.5a +12 8.0a -12 0.3a -5 0.3a Bare Motherboard +5 ?.?a +12 ?.?a A2090 +5 3.0a SupraRAM 4MB +5 ?.?a +12 ?.?a Cheers, ...Ed

I ran a 2000 with the following configuration for over 6 months with no problems with the power supply: 2 ICD controllers 1 GVP controller ASDG Dual Serial Board 8 up mem board w/4 meg A2630 w/4 meg Flicker Fixer 100 meg drive on one of the ICD controllers 2 - 100 Meg drives on a custom mount in the pc slots 44 Mb syquest in the 5 1/4" bay 2 floppies I probably came close to the limits of the P/S, but never had any problems. Your mileage may vary.... John | |||||

I ran mine with 2 disk controllers, 3 hard drives, two floppies, an accelerator, a 4 meg memory board and a genlock, NO problems. Another guy has 5 floppies (3 Amiga and 2 IBM) 4 megs a bridge 2 hard drives 2 controllers (1 Amiga 1 IBM) a multifunction board on the bridge side a genlock and a DCTV. Now THIS is full! Jean |
