Some other thoughts on that post. If a piece of hardware keeps blowing
power 
supplies, it could be something other than the power supplies as well. 

For sure, make sure that the device is on an adequate UPS. A good
quality UPS 
isn't only for power backup but it will keep the power clean and
filtered. You 
might have dirty power coming into your location which could be hurting
your 
gear.
Another thing is to check the connections between power supply and what
ever 
it is connecting to. Make sure that there is no build up or bad
soldering or 
anything else which might cause the power supply to pop because it can't
do 
what it needs to. 

When power supplies continuously fail, it's not always a given that it's
the 
cause, it could simply be the result of something else.

My 2 cents based on being a hardware guy for a long time :).
