Have been running 2 external drives and an Alegra expansion board since December myself–all powered from the Amiga. I have experienced no problems whatsoever–In fact, when using Marauderll for diskcopies I usually have all 3 drives running at the same time. I have discussed this two dealers in Michigan and both are pushing the fact that the power is now carried thru on the external drives. Both dealers claim this capability is available on all new 1010 drives being produced–I doubt very much this is a fluke on Commodores part. Unless you plan on really loading up your Amiga, I personally wouldnt bother the the external power suppy modification as suggested. This is my opinion only–perhaps someone from Commodore could jump in and enlighten everyone. Mike Veit
