A4000 Buying/Upgrade Advice =D

[Xanxi]

@fitzsteve:

Why would you use a Buddha board in an A4000 by the way?

Its just to run my CDRW

I was going to replace with a FastATA but my unit turned out to be faulty

So still got the Buddha which was always meant to be a temp solution...

Steve.

And why not on the internal IDE?

It didn't support my CF Card/DVDRW combination.

Now I'm the SCSI maybe it would work but Buddha is there and working so no need to change

Well, sell me the Buddha when you won't need it anymore, my A2000 is desperate for it. Perhaps we could make a deal including an UW SCSI to IDE adapter i have that i do not use.

Its definately good advice that if you're going to make an ultra system to invest in a decent PSU

He He, yes I know I'm a bit :nuts: with my A4K's... This one is my day bay day working machine...

I need onlly time to mod the backplate of the case......

@Xanxi: with all those goods inside I wonder if the A4000 power LED will lit!

Upgrade the PSU to a hefty 450W ATX from a good brand and you'll be sorted.

If you are not confident to do the hack, ask Cosmos as he is pretty much close to you.
