I have to stick a fan in front of the server to keep it cool, which is ok but not ideal, expecially when going away. I get a lot of drives going above 45C without the fan trick. I am tempted to replace the two big fans at the back, but I only want them to go full speed in summer, so I guess I am looking for a manual speed regulator instead of a fan that senses case temperature. Any suggestions? Fan control, I'd recommend https://getfancontrol.com/ as a good way to control fans and ramp them up when needed based on temps. Here is a video on how to do a lot fo the setup and config - Quote Link to comment
gnollo Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Thank you Whaler_99, is it available as an application on Unraid? Also I am interested in setting up a target temperature for those hard disks that usually get hot, can I link it to hard disk temperatures? I didn't see that as an option in the video.

gnollo Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Also I replaced the Norco stock fans with the Coolink SWiF2-801 80mm 1500 RPM 3-pin Quiet Cooling Fan, I wonder if they can be run at full speed and how? Link to the fan product page https://www.quietpc.com/cl-swif2-801 Quote Link to comment
gnollo Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 These are the two fans at the back. I am pretty sure I have not even connected them to the motherboard so it might perhaps explain why they seem to move so litte air, and might be aggravating the heat issue https://www.quietpc.com/cl-swif2-12p Quote Link to comment
Whaler_99 Posted June 24, 2023 Author Share Posted June 24, 2023 Sorry, yes, you'd need to check Github for any options or forks. Also, there is this - Quote Link to comment

Vetteman Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Wow, after near an year and the poster has not replied. How strange to make a recommendation and not reply to a simple question. Quote Link to comment
