:) now i have a spare 400watt unit

A good reason for them not to touch when they are on... you can get a big spark between them... you can even short the internals... did you remove the ground to get them running together?

It was unplugged, just had not discharged yet,

Amp was running fine on just 1 PSU tho

hi there,
I am trying to get an other power supply, and have found an p/s "750W p/s ASR2500PS Intel Modul for SR2500". it supplies 62 amps (!!), I just wonder where to connect what... it looks a bit different than the HP serverer power supplies.

I have three chargers (average stuff) on one pc 500w p/s and sometimes it seems not to be sufficient.

otherwise I am going to get a 800w PC p/s, it may be a bit easier for me, 'cos I have already converted one. this server stuff is new to me...

edit:
this one might be an alternative:

many thanks
