Product: Omen 870-230no
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I'm looking to upgrade the psu on my 870-230no, as I plan on installing a third storage drive and I fear that 300w won't be enough. Any suggestions?

@Kosomies , welcome to the Community.

 

You should be able to use any standard ATX power supply unit (PSU).  I suggest a full-modular version.  They allow you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary.  This makes for better airflow.  Since you didn't mention how much power that you need, I will provide a 650W PSU.  Here is one that should work for you.
