[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Amiga 1000 Power Surplus

ranjit@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Ranjit Bhatnagar) (01/18/90)

Quick questions:

How much surplus power does an unexpanded Amiga 1000 have?  Is
it enough to power a hard disk?  I understand that the Amiga 500
has very little surplus, but the 1000 is supposed to be stronger.
Unfortunately, the 1000 hardware manual doesn't have this information.

Is +5V@5A / +12V@2A sufficient power for a large Seagate drive
such as the 296N?  

Please email responses.
