I got two power supplies and I would like to know if there is a wa I can mod it so it can work as one?

Anybody know how or got a link on how to do it?

thanks in advance
 
synch 2 PSU each as a seperate bus

1. Hardwired
2. With a relay

or employing a shared bus Like a redundant PSU

1. with resistors
2. with mosfets
3. with diodes (Single Source Fault Tolerant Power Systems) @ Power Electronics Technology

I ran 2 hardwired 400Watts for three years
(done the same as the burning issues link above)
it didnt kill my KR7A, (but Im not so sure about an ECS I had)
I can say that without synching PSU, that I corrupted the holy hell out of my HDDs on automated restarts (powering a RAID array), the drives wouldnt spin down but the card would loose power, was resolved when I synchd them
 
I wouldn't do it... it's too complicated and expensive to do correctly; for the time/effort involved you're better off buying a decent single PSU.
