I would say,, fine.. I will just drop by and pull everything out that I installed... I dont remember you calling me back.. I dont remember you getting me a bill for the power supply.. (75 bucks or less, most are 35bucks). So,, when do you want me to pull the equipment,,, during the week or on this weekend?....

Also.... anytime you take down power, there is a good chance that some equipment that runs 24 hours a day, for years, will fail... We had equipment fail in the computer rooms and av rooms every time they cut power at a leading telephone company. After being hot for 5 years and then cooling down, a lot of the brittle capacitors would break and go open.... Its a fact of life... In the av rooms all of the extron video converters would pop the power supplies,,, we referred to it.. as the extron blue flu..... They all got it, well 7 of the 16 died.

And some of the cisco routers went belly up when we powered them down up do upgrades, memory and feature cards.. always the power supplies due the high heat they generate.

So I really dont know why a 38 dollar power supply in a server tower is a big deal, especially if it was fixing to go anyway. If it was a hd model it should have had redundant power supplies and you simply pull the one out with the red light and replace it. Again more do to age than probably anything you did other than turn the power off and on.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
