Hi there,
I'm just trying to configure my little uVAX II with a new disk-controller.
I looked up all the bus-loads and power lines, added them and I know
want to know your opinion to that:
Guess the following:
1 * BA23-Box
1 * KA630
1 * MA630-B* (4MB)
1 * MA630-C* (8MB)
1 * DELQA
1 * DZQ11
1 * KDA50 (Yes, I know not supported in BA23, but does it work ?!)
1 * TKQ50
1 * TK50
-----------
So far, power on 5V = 32.5 A, max. is 36A
        power on 12V = 1.03 A, max is 7A
I did not find any max. bus-loads, but sum so far is:
AC : 12.4   DC: 3.5

This should be fine so far (except the unsupported KDA50)
I now want to add:
1 * RQDX3
1 * RQDXE
---------------
power 5V = 35.48 A
power 12V = 1.1 A
AC: 14.3    DC: 5

Well, power at 5V is pretty close to the limit. Will this work stable ??
What about the bus-loads ?
Btw. currently the system is running with 
RQDX3, RQDXE, KA630, MA630-B*, MA630-C*, 2*DZQ11, DELQA, TKQ50, TK50

So, I want to expand my disk-space with some RA-disks, thus adding the KDA50.
Ok, any thoughts ? May I add the RQDX or may I better leave it ? Oh, I have a 
spare PC-powersupply (200W), I could add this one to my box...
