I am Curious about one of the above reviewers, you rated this a 1/5 Stars because you took one of the modular cables from this powersupply and used it with a competitors powersupply and it fried one of your Solid State Drives? This sucks for you but how is that the fault of this powersupply? How can you rate something at 1/5 stars for something you did in error?
- Summary:
- You can't rate down a product for something you did in Error people will see the 3/5 stars and assume that this is a mediocre sometimes spotty product when its actually quite good. A few years back I messed up while sleeving a PSU got 2 wires backwards fried an ASUS motherboard I didn't blame the PSU manufacturer or ASUS I blamed myself for making that mistake and so should you.
BEWARE! - MODULAR PLUGS HAVE DIFFERENT PIN-OUTS

- Strengths:
- Overall a great supply that works as advertised.
- Weaknesses:
- BUT .... the modular plugs in this supply will plug into the jacks on Thermaltake brand supplies but are wired differently. This causes the +12V and +0V rails to be REVERSED on accessory connectors. In my case, It destroyed a very expensive SSD. BEWARE!!
- Summary:
- DO NOT mix the cables that come with this supply with other cables.
