Almost forgot...

I also outlined a number of steps to follow, to test the array as it's being built.

#1: run 1 PSU with one circuit (with a test load)
-measure driver output voltages
-verify output voltages

#2: run 1 PSU with 2 circuits (1 ON, 1 OFF)
-measure MOSFET gate voltages

#3: run 2 PSU with 2 circuits (all ON)
-measure PSU output voltages
-measure power bus voltages

#4: test "PWR_OK" circuit

#5: route -5, -12, and +5standby from PSU#1 to mobo header, as well as "PWR_ON" from all three PSUs.

#6: wire in lights (and switches?)

#7: wire in peripheral connectors, and pump relay.

Then all I have to do, is build up the CD tray/case for the connectors, finish attaching the PSUs to them, build a frame within the case for the receiving connectors, wire it all in, and route everything neatly.
