Re: 270 Power supply

270 does NOT have redundant OR hot swappable power supplies!! There can be two if you have the expansion side but they are BOTH required in that case. The 820 does have hot swappable supplies if you have three of them. Early 820 power supplies sucked and were rapidly replaced. (because most of them died!)

I know that they did happen to have issues with some of the early
power supplies for 270's and 820's. Apparently they weren't truly
hot-swappable, although they were suppose to be. I heard stories of
some 'arc-ing' and others taking down the system when removed from the
system concurrently. Your best best to get the newest part numbers is
to order directly from it.
