All of a sudden, the power supply of a server started to smell real bad. One of the hot swappable power supply units died. We replaced it, booted up Windows Server 2003 to find out that 2 out of 4 drives in a RAID 5 configuration had died.

We're also getting MACHINE\_CHECK\_EXCEPTION BSOD's everyone once in a while.

How realistic is it that the power supply did this to the RAID? The RAID was confirmed to be working minutes before this happened (we were using the RAID right before we noticed the awful smell).

Thanks for any advice given! :)
