n5200pro replacement power supply

Hello,

The replacement power supply is called : Enhance ENP‑2322B, here are some links:

Enhance's site, with all the options (up to 300watt) - www.enhanceusa.com/series.php?series_id=63

$32 250watt - compare.ebay.com/like/260876844932?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar

$50 for a 300 watt - www.eboxdirect.com/brnew300wafl.html

$22 for a 220 watt on eBay - compare.ebay.com/like/130640364670?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar

NewEgg has a tons of them too:
www.newegg.com/Product/ProductLi ... Mini%20ITX

These are Mini-ITX power supplies, if you have an old Shuttle Cube lying around, they also used the same form factor PS.

Note the Dimensions:
( W x H x D ) 3.2" x 1.7" x 6"

IMPORTANT NOTE: Many of us got a 200 watt, which works fine. However, if you plan on running 5 x 2TB 7200rpm drives, you might run into problems.

If you did what I did : 2.26 CPU upgrade, 1GB RAM upgrade, and 5 x Hitachi 7k3000 drives, you WILL NEED at least the 250watt, possibly even the 300 watt,

Hi,

I saw your post on the N5200 power supply replacement and wondered about the dimensions. You said the dimensions are 3.2" x 1.7" x 6", but

mine happen to be 4" x 1.7" x 7" . I know that it will fit, but will the cables get in the way at all?

Thanks for your post and answering the question in advance. Also: I am using five 1TB drives. Reuben
