No. Actually, this is a 1300W supply (ie, 1300W power is actually available 
to the system). It is not an auto-ranging supply.

Yes, you can. Assuming you are running in redundant mode (not combined 
mode) and everything is currently powered up, then 1 PS should be adequate 
to power the system while you make this change.


>Is the Fan Blade hot swappable?


Yes, but you should do it as quickly as possible to prevent automatic 
system shutdown (would take several minutes before overheating).
