Hello,

My PowerEdge T100 went down recently - it made a loud grinding noise and then tripped a breaker. There was also a faint burnt smell in the air, all of which leads me to believe the power supply is dead.

So I'm looking into how to replace the power supply, but I'm confused by what I'm looking at and need help.

My T100 power supply has a cable that I'm not familiar with. The power supply cable in question has four sata ports, the last two of which branch out to connect to a SAS controller. I'm including a photo below, since I may not be describing it correctly.

Since the drive/controller cabling is directly integrated with the power supply, I'm not sure how to replace it.

Do I just need to drop a "standard" power supply in and then add a SAS-SATA conversion cable? Or can I buy a replacement power supply with a similar cable configuration?

Sorry, my hardware knowledge is (perhaps obviously) limited. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
