Review: Much better than Streacom branded or generic equivalent - This is a premium product and significantly superior the alternatives. In particular compared to the current (more expensive) Streacom branded product the PCB is thicker, the wires are thicker, there are 4 wires all the way to the P4 port instead of 2, the chokes are bigger and it manages to regulate voltages within 1% of specification whereas instead of 5% for Streacom. In my case the PC wouldn't start from warm with the Streacom regulator, but works perfectly with this.
Review: Perfect htpc psu - I had an idea to build a htpc from the spare parts I had laying around to stick under the TV. This is the perfect psu for the job, small, have all the cables I need and just the right power level.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: hi i am new to the sfx and micro PSU's world. how does this work? do i need to purchase a laptop inverter? or does it come with a 3pin mains socket?**
A: It terminates to a laptop style circular connector that bolts into a hole in the case. You then buy separately a laptop style power block that plugs into this and the mains. I bought a 120w block, which I think amazon advertises as a 'buy together' option.Had mine running for a year now and the silent PC runs nicely.

**Q: What is the country of origin please**
A: Mini box is a Californian company and this product has a US Patent so I'd say US

**Q: Does anyone know how many sata devices this can handle i.e. how many sata connectors does it have??**
A: Hello it has 1 sata and 1mol connector you can get a mol to sata converter so you have 2 sata. You can not run more then 2 devices as I found out due to the unit not having enough power. 

Hope this helps.

**Q: Hello! I would like to use it in my ultrasilent HTPC/Download Server/NAS (intel i3 2100t 35W). How many HDD WD Red (4TB) can be supported?**
A: Hi, It depends on whether the drives are active or not, the total of their power consumption and the remaining power available. This sounds obvious but you can calculate the total power usage the peripheral components in your system use by simple arithmetic. The PSU max peak power is 200W; Your CPU requires 35W, the HDD WD Red (4TB) drives read/write power usage is 4.5W per drive and the idle power usage is 3.3W per drive. Any other devices in the system will require specific power demands such as CD/DVD drive, Mainboard, cooling fans, etc.. It would also depend on how you would connect the HDD's, either in external USB HDD enclosures or internally using the PSU power connectors of which there are two.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An expensive version of a common item but was needed for a computer repair. Not reliable!
*by P***7 on 17 May 2025*

A very expensive version of a common product but was needed for a specific computer repair. These blow up after about 12 months. This is about my 3rd or 4th one!
