I got TWO external drives, PANASONIC, with no external supply > working since few weeks with no problems. . . . Unless you consider burning up your Amiga's power supply to be a problem! Commodore representatives have stated repeatedly on the net (and in the instruction manual for the A1010 external drive) that the power supply in the Amiga is designed to handle *one* external drive, only! If you want to burn up *your* Amiga, I guess you know what you're doing, right??? But please don't encourage other people, who lack the knowledge required to make such a decision, to risk their machines!
