[net.micro.pc] Kammerman Disk Drive WARNING!

From:      Joe Pistritto <jcp@BRL-TGR.ARPA>


	I installed one of the Kammerman disk drives in my PC-II about
a month ago, (I sent a message to Info-PC at the time), along with an
AST Megaplus-II board and IBM color graphics adapter.  Well, everything
was kind of OK, (some power up difficulties), until last night, when
I arrived home to find my power supply DEAD AS A DOORNAIL.  I mean, no
fan, no juice, NOTHING.  I disassembled the PC, removed the power supply,
and it still won't do anything.  At this point, I am trying to convice
my local dealer to order me a PC/XT replacement so I can upgrade the
power supply to one that will produce enough juice for this thing.  By
the way, the folks at Kammerman say it DOES work with a PC-II mounted
internally, (it did for me for a month anyway).  Most disturbing...
