I though that you had used a linear power supply, which you would of needed at least ( 1 ) Cap the size you had, so with the quality SMPS that you used, you would not of needed any Cap's at all, may be one for safe measures at the Power supply to help protect it from anything going back that could affect the SMPS
The best thing is not to have the Caps there at all, and only at the power supply if it needs them to filter the rough DC power
