Hi again,
just some other thing that came to my mind right now:
Don't leave your rx2660 in standby with mains connected over longer
times, because its PSUs will get quite hot otherwise and most likely age
faster than normal if not burn up over time. The DL380 G5 and DL385 G2
and G5 (at least mine, upgraded from a G2) all seem to have the same
problem.
Thanks Frank. I am most certainly going to check mine. Last year one of the two
PSUs on my rx2660 died. I am not down to one. I’ve been actually browsing eBay
for a replacement. This data will come in handy when picking a new one.
Oh dear… did I just jinx it?!

[1] states it is a design flaw. [2] mentions that there are newer PSU
revisions that might be OK in standby, so maybe you're lucky and have
one of those in yours already.
Cheers,
Frank
