hawihoney Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) I'm looking for a way to control fans in a JBOD chassis. I found manual fan control in slot bracket (see link below). But I would like to make it based on a temperature sensor. http://www.overclock.co.uk/product/Variable-Fan-Speed-Slot-Controller-PCI-Bracket_35340.html I own a Supermicro SC846 JBOD chassis. In this chassis a small power board (CSE-PTJBOD-CB2) only exists to power on/off everything. The five fans are crying like hell and you think they are constantly on 100%. But if you remove one fan, they become even louder. https://m.newegg.com/products/N82E16816101800 The room is really cold throughout the year and it's not necessary to keep the fans at 100% without CPUs, RAM, etc. Does anybody know a solution to reduce fan speed by temperature sensor without a mainboard? A newer version of the power board (CSE-PTJBOD-CB3) is no solution because my backplane (BPN-SAS2-EL1) does not have the required connectors. https://m.newegg.com/products/1WK-0010-001Y0 Edited February 11, 2019 by hawihoney Quote Link to comment
