This was in my sister's fiance's computer. The sata connector kept popping off the hard drive, so I just decided to replace it with a better unit, being that these aren't that high quality in the first place but his computer isn't exactly power demanding. Good thing I pulled it out.

Yup, its one of these youngyear units.

Keen eyes might note the bulging of almost every piss yellow cap on the secondary. They're all Fuhjyuu unsurprisingly. Primaries are 1000uf Capxon's.

Keen eyes may have also noticed this, a whole zip tie was lodged in there. Nice job, QC and line workers.

Yup, there they are. Bleh.

The CCFL ring around the top fan taps to some winding in the transformer. I found that interesting.
Anyways, here's the technical stuffs:
Primary transistors: 2x 2SC3320's in half bridge
Primary transformer is quite massive.
12v is rectified by a 30A, 45V schottky
5v is rectified by 2x 30A, 45V schottky's
3.3v is rectified by a 40A, 45V schottky
Bridge rectifier is a 8A, 500V unit
