need your opinion - Is a "recertified" PSU reliable? - Page 2

Thread Starter 
It sounds like this is a good unit (assuming it is a rebranded PC Power & Cooling PSU). I live just down the road from the Directron warehouse, so if it does go up in smoke at least I wont have to wait weeks of shipping to get a new one, So I think i'm going to give it a try and keep my fingers crossed.

Thanks everyone for all the info and input.

Maybe I am just unlucky but literally none of their products have worked properly for me. I stopped purchasing them after that.

Bought three Agility 3 120GB ssd's and haven't had one problem.. Just the usual firmware update for the Sandforce controller.
