Server PSU popped. Is it now a paper weight?

[jmigdlc99]

So my server PSU woke me up with a loud pop last night. When i got to the rig it smelled burnt. It was one of my DELL 1400w server PSUs which was running at a load of 1000w.

Probably just because of poor refurbished quality but anyway, the breakout board won't light up anymore but none of the cables or the PSU case look burnt. I guess something just popped inside. My question is can this be repaired or do some people buy these kinds of PSUs? Or am i stuck with using this as a paper with or souvenir? What have you guys done with stuff like these?

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you have 200-240 V mains voltage and your load is about 1000W,
then I can highly recommend buying the HP DPS-1200 FB A server power supply.
