Update - just "smoked" the FORTRON 400W. Big Blue flash out the back, behind the fan, which I'll salvage off both the OCZ. Seems they'd be fans built to last, & should be good hard-drive plane candidates. Good news, found a destitute PSP 300W in a white foam bag off The Shelf of Forgotten Parts. Looks brand new & never used. Fires right up, though believe that MB may be wanting a 500W unit, especially w/ PCI express video. Beggars and limp-alongs for the MB's video chipset, with any luck before a new PS arrives to set up -a- HD. Killed more than a few PS units, but this is the first time I've smoked one. If painted w/ temperature-release perfume coatings, they wouldn't stink up a house so bad.
