I am halfway in adding a second mech to my SH205.  Unfortunately it is not
as straightforward as it seems:
 1) It does not fit easily (just a cm missing)
 2) The powersupply will not spin up both disks simultaneously (50W, 
    1.6A on the 12V is not enough for 2 Tandon TM262).  Got another one.
 3) I get weird errors and a hung-up bus as soon I try to access lun1,
    even without the second drive attached.
Can anyone offer any help?  The same set-up worked fine for a friend with
an SH204.
                               Thanx a 1.D6,
                               			Geert Jan van Oldenborgh
