 Subject: RE: Dead ST PSU ...??

I have some, but Iīm in sweden, sorry...

The best option, when using a HD, is to use an (external) PSU from an old pese. I do that with my Falc, Mega4 and some STEīs, and it works fine. No risk it burns, even if the Falc has 2X IDE HD(3.5"), 3X SCSI HD + SCSI CD-RW.

Those PSUīs already have some HD power connectors, and for the ST you only need 3 wires; 5V, 12V and GND. Measure those voltages out from the two connectors that originally was connected to the peseīs motherboard, with one of the black wires as GND. (normally red=5V and orange=12V) and connect them to your STīs motherboard. The blue wire, from the original ST PSU, is 12V, and there are usually two 5V-pins, just connect the 5V wire from the PSU, to both. The same with those three GND pins, connect the black wire to all 3. This should do it.

Regards
Flash
