ok , dunno if this will help.

i once had 2x 300 watt psu's in my amiga (both was atx)

why? , because my hdd's keept falling out (u know the sound) ..

so i added one more (and my miggy is pretty souped up).

i had 2 psu's...belived that would cure my problems..., and sure it did until the weird things started to happen.


THE fan on psu 1 died, just stopped to rotate (it was powering a hd and 2 fine..

so i replaced Psu1 with a new one.

Then Fan on PSU 2 died , just like psu 1 did , so then i belived that having 2 psu's in one tower aint a good idea.

but i got another psu.   and a few months later  both was dead.

note that psu 1 got replaced by a new one and the new one didnt die until after psu 2 had died.

any connection? .

i use the atx converter for the RBM towerhawk.

anyway i never blew any psu with the adapter when i had 1 psu connected.


later on (now) i use 1x AT psu as i removed my atx stuff when i got an mediator , i tried with 2 psu's now also, but the psu dies (fan stops to rotate)

(and it max deliver powerenough for maybe 2 hdd's ... or else it will just die....crap)


maybe its of the same problem? , system not meant to be powered like this? , maybe its the tower GROUND ? ...oh well i dont know and i find it very mysterious.



Whats up with all the hate!
