Slimline Power Supply Upgrade for SFF Desktop Computer - Fits: Dell Vostro Slim Tower 200, 200S, 220S, 400

Ordered in Dec. Nice. Works great but loud like a blow dryer. 4 desktops and this one is now the loudest. Gets a little quieter over time or maybe I'm just used to it.March; woke up to fan rattling and groaning. Took unit out, opened up and took fan out. Removed blades by applying pressure to exspose dipole. Yup. Silicone grease. I run across this several times in the last few years. Silicone grease only lasts a month or two. Added one drop of 3-in-one oil. Reassembled. Works like a charm again. 3-in-one oil last a couple of years at least or so far with all I've tried.In all still a good product. If you're willing to install this then this fan fix is just a small amount more down the line. No problem.

Installed into an ancient Vostro 200. The length of the wires for the 4 wire connector to the MOBO was just barely long enough to reach, its tight but works. There are only two SATA and two Molex power connectors so if you have more than two SATA drives (one HDD & one DVD) you will need a Molex to SATA adapter. Mine has three drives so I needed an adapter, no big deal, but you should know. Great to be able to bring an old box back to life!

Pluses: worked properly, and was a welcome quiet relief after the din of the dead cooling fan bearings of its predecessor.Minuses: that predecessor - its computer being a Dell Vostro 200 slim tower - had two SATA power cords…one that went to the hard-drive trays on the near side of the case, and the other that went to the disk-drive stack on the far side. The new one has only ONE such cable. It can reach the DVD drive on the far end of the case, and a single hard-drive on the near end. But it's not long enough for its three connectors to reach TWO components in either of those stacks…such as a second hard-drive.

Pros:This power supply replaces the original FSP in my Micron small form factor desktop that died. It allowed me to keep this old PC out of the dump.Cons:Screw holes in the back doesn't quite line up, but was able to secure it with 2 screws. The fan IS VERY LOUD; You know the computer is on even before you walk in the room.

I used the supply to power a vintage computer. That's not it's intended use.I bench tested before I voided the warranty. It met all the published specs.Then I cut all the connectors off and put on the connectors I needed.It's working fine in my application. I can't tell you if it fits the systems listed.

It fit fine in a Dell Vostro 200, but is incredibly loud compared to the previous one (previous one was whisper quiet). Like a leaf blower. The system is not running hot or anything like that, nor is it under a lot of load.I may have to put my pfSense box in a closet somewhere now. Took one star off because of the noise.

I needed a replacement power supply for my Dell Vostro 200 slim tower. This unit is identical size and worked perfectly. There are multiplepower wires on this unit, but don't be discouraged. Remove the wires 1 at a time from the burned out unit and plug in this replacement unit 1 at a time. It will work and you'll pat yourself on the pack and say "well done" computer repair engineer.I don't think it's any louder than the last unit. It might be? I didn't notice any difference.

A little noisy, but not as bad as some. Have only had it installed for about a month, but it works fine.
