Anybody have this?

My DS200/MC has just bit the dust it seems.


Send the DS200 my way.   I like fixing those.

Every time I've had a problem with any of these, it has been the power
supply. Got any hints on what breaks?


In the case of mine the fans failed which resulted in rubber around
inductors melting and having other components fail due to the heat.
Seems like similar has happened to people around the internet.

I actually have ones with no fans...


Hopefully not with the original PSU? ;)

The board seems to be fine without fans...it's just the PSU needs them.   I have a little fan running on my DECserver that has an external PSU now. It runs fine like this.

Although, in the case of mine the fans spinning in their condition probably would've resulted in extra heat.

(I also noticed that MIM tried booting a DS200 for quite a while and
failing, with the same "Line communication error" results. Same
transciever?)
