Red,

If I am correct, that's a Bigfoot Power Supply. I used to have one for my old A500. 250W. Those things are BOMB!!!!! That will help ya get the best out of your A500. I had an A500, with a 4MB ADRam Card, Trumpcard SCSI Controller with 80MB HHD and a 4X CDRom running off that bad boy. Gave it away to some guy in New York after I bought my first A2000. He was supposed to pay me back for shipping....now that I remember, he never did. X^(

Not just A500, but also suitable for A2000 (the long connector right in the
middle) and the one lying directly left of the A500-conector(also good for A600 or A570 ;-)  ) should fit into an A3000 or A4000.

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

I doubt it will fit an A3000D, although it has the required rectangle connector.

Anyway is the only way

Hi Red

it is a well known Bigfoot PSU.

I've found it, on a old "AC's Guide Amiga" catalogue.

In 1991, was 150 W for A500, then in 1993 there was an updated model (200 w) with some "adapters" for Supra, 6VP hard drives (??).

IIRC, PowerComputing had a "bigfoot service", to mod your existings PSU, even to 300 Watt!

Ciao
