Alas, anything other than the MOTM-900 is going to be DIY.
Don't worry - this is part of the fun of building your own modular!
It shouldn't be a big project.  It's just a matter of mounting a
replacement power supply somewhere within the case, removing
the wiring from the old supply (mounted to the 900) and wiring up
the replacement supply in it's place.  The connections should be the
same, albeit longer.

Of course, I see no reason why you could not leave the MOTM-900
power supply in place and attach the switched AC over to source
another power supply.  I don't have a 900, but I seem to recall that
the AC connector is one of those with the fuse built in.  So, you
would need to increase the fuse size to accommodate the additional
load.  I don't think slightly the larger fuse (in the size I am thinking)
would
be an issue for protection.  Certainly, the switch should be fine, but the
rating should be checked.  I cannot imagine it being even close though.
Then, one switch would turn on both supplies.  The only disadvantage is that
if the single fuse protecting both supplies blows, you have to do some
trouble
shooting to know which supply has failed.  But, chances of PS failures are
rather slim these days.
