Is changing the 210W to a higher wattage PSU on a Lenovo ThinkCentre safe? It depends on proper connector alignment, correct pin configuration, and using a reliable power supply. Avoid low-quality, unregulated units without protective features.

Usually, as long as the connectors match (same pinouts, voltages, and current per connection), it should work fine. The rating in watts indicates how much power the supply can generate or manage. (A 500-watt supply won't increase power to the computer further.) Do you have any model numbers for the power supplies?
