Thanks BlueFox. I suspected that might be the case. However, I was under the impression that the PDB-PT825-S8824 power distributor was the most recent version. Perhaps this is the most recent version for the old chassis? Do the newer 826's use a different power distributor with a different...
Well, if you download the manual for Supermicro 826 chassis and read the section describing approved power supplies, it lists the PWS-1K28P-SQ as being supported by these chassis. Not so. My chassis has the PDB-PT825-S8824 power distributor and this power supply won't go into it. I guess now I...

But, for the life of me, I cannot get the old power distributor out. The...
