• Dual-Socket Build: 800W+ per PSU (server redundant configuration typical)

Ideal for systems with high PCIe utilization (NVMe arrays, GPUs).

Important Purchasing Note – Vendor Locking

Part number 100-000000345 is commonly found on the secondary market.

• Locked Units: Some are vendor-locked to specific OEM systems (e.g., Dell).

• Unlocked Units: Fully compatible with standard SP3 Milan motherboards.

Always verify listing states “Unlocked” or “No Vendor Lock” if installing outside the original OEM platform.
