Does anyone know how much current is safe to draw from the A1200 (600?) socket ?

It can obviously support small ide mechanical HD's but connecting a larger drive would kill the tracks/components in the supporting part of the circuit.

You can use larger drives fine. Wont hurt it. 5v on Amiga PSU is quite decent on Amp's.
You can check current rating on PSU, on bottom, it will tell you Amp ratings.

Floppy molex to Floppy molex, with large molex coming off it.
3 way as it were.

Splitter cable, but with male instead of female.
