Exploding capacitor caught on film – SupraDrive Removable Hard Drive – Part 1.
This video did not quite go the way I intended it to.
Check out the magic smoke escaping from this SupraDrive Removable Hard Drive.

OMG! So much magic smoke. 🙁 I hope no permanent damage was done.
I’m hoping there’s no damage too. I may look at powering up the Syquest drive with a modified ATX power supply, just to test it.
Oh my, I hope there was no damage to the Amiga! Have you ever heard the joke that electronics run on smoke? When you let the smoke out they don’t work anymore! 😉
No damage to either the Syquest drive or the Amiga thankfully. Just the capacitor blew. I have replaced all of the capacitors and the power supply is fine. I’m going to install a brand new power supply just in case the old one is dodgy.
