When my PSU arrived, I did as anyone would do and hooked that puppy up, checked and triple checked my connections, and held my breath as I pushed the power button.
The first thing I noticed was an electric burn smell and the fact the PSU seemed to "rev" slowly. I thought this was just a new item burn in smell so I watched the boot. Everything seemed fine (YAY!)...well, no... not YAY! I ran a program or two and then powered down to do a reboot. Posting seemed fine until the very end and it seemed to snag. I looked at my computer and both my DVD drives had their red activity lights on without the regular stutter. They were the only things connected to the molex connectors. I unplugged the molex and everything worked fine, other than the fact my two DVD drives are now possibly fried. :( Unfortunately Amazon doesn't have any more of these in stock so I have to pay $40 more at Tigerdirect. I want a modular. :( I will update this after I get my 2nd unit. If it works like I want, and my DVDs aren't actually fried, then I will upgrade the score.
They do not appreciate their customers, RMA policy is ridiculous!
