Default Re: 4100 problem - HDD bad?

WOW! That is horrible heat control. I think I will leave it going. So I switch it to J12 on the other side of the RAM? Can I hot swap that? I really don't want to power down until I get the replacement server.
Now you know why users run the fans 24/7. The 1100 is worst, it at a higher level. The v1 2000 runs 24/7 the v2 does not.

Yes you can hot swap the fan, but do it when the fan cycles off. If the fan is running contionus which I dought, use some compressed air to help cool it off while you swithc it.
