Shotgun , make sure when you get the Tt680 psu that its a revision 2 , The first ones they released where junk .  You'll know by the 12 rail amps if its a rev2 or not , rev2 has its 12 rails @ 14A, 23A, 15A . The eairlier one were alot lower .   38

yup, this is the one I got, but the date code is funny...'0602'
is that a US or a UK arrangement of numbers?

If you find tht you are going to do a total reload of the OS, take the time to check with the HDD manufacturer for their diagnostic software. Write zeros to the drive and then do the install of the OS.

Format only clears the beginning and end of the drive whereas writing zeros to the drive will clear it completely and return the drive to a "new" state.

Time and again i have done this way and it has releaved me of countless headaches when doing reloads on systems.
