I have a Enermax 400w psu
running the following
E8200
4GB DDR3
P5E3 WS Pro mobo
adaptec 52445
matrox pci video card
2x 120gb 2.5" off the motherboard
10x samsung 2TB off raid card
10x samsung 1.5TB off raid card
and a laptop optical drive
6x delta 80mm fans
1x nexus 120mm fan
i have another 8x 1.5TB's running off the controller but there powered by another psu in a 2u hot swap rack
it has been running fine without a hitch for a while, used as a fileserver only but wanted to change to SB to get some transcoding going so would be changing out the MB and cpu, will I be ok with those changes and my current psu or do i need a upgrade asap even with current setup?
