TCIII Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Hi all, After a year and a half of almost continuous operation, I finally had a fan freeze in one of my Kingwin KF-101 mobile racks. If you are using the Kingwin KF-101 mobile racks, you can get replacement 50mm fans for $8.95 plus shipping at xPCgear.com. I guess that this is cheaper than replacing the tray itself which runs around $15.00 plus shipping. Regards, TCIII Quote Link to comment
limetech Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Heh, I remember this subject from a year (!) ago. We still have some early prototype systems which use those trays in the Lian-Li PC6077 case. Most of the fans gave out in about a week. I discovered that if you remove the fan and remove the top cover, the drives stay COOLER than when you have the fans running. In fact, I think the fans do NOTHING to cool the drives. YMMV.
