but you can just open the PSU and look at it's board cause they usually mark it on there aswell (PG, PwG, PwrGd or simular)


What !???

PSUs have lethal voltages inside :-o

Don't do anythin silly man.

The electricity doesn't really live in the box, it comes there via the cord... ;-)

Always lick the coil before you touch it. That way you drain the voltage.

10 points to JCamper - putting load on (connecting drives) kicked the PSU into life. Well Done :-)
