Getting the H742 supplies out is a pain too, due to the fan wiring. You
have to unbolt the fans, drop them into the space where the 'bricks' go,
and then disconenct the wiring from each fan.
I seem to remeber unscrewing the _top_ H742 supply from the rack and
moving it out of the way without disconnecting the fan wires (I think I
had to unplug some of the mate-n-lock connectors). Then I could get to
the screws in the lower supply.
There are, of course, screwdrivers designed to work in such spaces,
including ones with bevel gearboves in them. Is it possible to use
something like that to get at said screws?
