2A is what Apple lists as the power draw for the 5120. If it boots, it's sufficient. If not, I guess you need 3A. 2A is borderline for booting these old girls with old lubricant in the disk drives. Remember these AC adapters are no spring chickens either. They are 20 years old, and I had one go bad. Unfortunately it went from 7.5V to 19V out, and fried my Power CD player. Fortunately it wasn't a Portable.
