ah, so you found my thread in EAB  :-D
well, it works fine, altough I now made some changes...
I removed the side panel , so that it looks like the 1st pics of my post, and I have placed under the mATX psu my 40GB 2.5" HDD converted to UWSCSI-III with an acard7720 card...

HERE it is how it looks now...

200W is more than enough, even for a ppc/pci 4000. the original PSU is 145W.
As u can see, I have kept the front part of the original psu, and mounted there on the same holes, an ATX switch (amigakit has them too) and use the same method to on/off the 4000 like the original psu.

yes, a 2.5" HD fits easily, but u also need to cut the part where the original psu fan was placed, so the HD cables go from there to the accelerator (IF u have scsi on the accel. like the cs-ppc)
