FSP Aurum S Gold 400W is my go-to power supply for small FreeNAS's ;)

You recommended that model to me when I first started asking noob questions in the forum over two years ago.
I found the post :p

Do you have any comments about my pending purchase, I already know you kinda like the PSU model...

I tend to prefer the X11SSM-F, since M.2 PCI-e SSDs are still very high-end oriented.

You convinced me to look harder at that PCI slot vs. M.2 thing this morning, I checked with the
SuperBiiz website and they're out of stock
Maybe I'll develope more patience when the coffee, kick-starts my grey matter this morning ;)
Thanks Eric
