According to an unfortunate Reddit user, they found an unpleasant surprise when buying a 500-watt power supply. The netizen opened the newly purchased power supply and found a conspicuous steel box. When the box was opened, there was only a plastic bag of iron powder inside.
Other netizens on the reddit forum (by Tom's hardware noted) immediately doubted the age-old notion that this box existed to increase the weight of the power supply. But there are also some people who carefully inspect the power supply and find that the power supply has no input or output protection, no overcurrent protection, and the actual output power is only about half of what is stated on the label.
This is further confirmed by the lack of regulation or inspection labels. U Hattix advises, "It is better to use salt, spears and lawyers. Don't use that power supply. ”
Although this netizen said that when they bought the power supply, it was sold with a NAS case**, and they did not intend to use it in the actual assembly. But it's a reminder that buying something important can be even more expensive in the future.
