I understand now.However, the PDCB will produce it's own +5VSB. That means you need to modify the +5VSB PDCB pin by desoldering it, and wiring something different. If you do a straight tap, then I'm unsure of what would happen if you have two separate +5VSB fighting each other. It would be a difficult job to remove the solder and isolate one of the 24 pin terminals from the board.I guess a better solution is to use a 24 pin extension and splice it from there.Theoretically, it sounds like it'll work.Have thought about designing one that fully integrates with the meanwell, but the other issue is you'll also need a way to safely connect 8pin PCIe to the round terminals. I concluded a solid state relay would just be simpler overall and ensures more compatibility with other types of AC-DC units. I will probably revisit this issue when I get more opportunities.
