NETGEAR GS748T fans failure

Hello JerryShi,
And welcome to the NETGEAR Community! 🙂
There was an issue before specific to GS748Tv5 about fan failure and the solution is these switches has been replaced. There has been an internal investigation if there are batch of switches that has been released with the same issue. For now, I suggest to update your firmware to the latest and factory reset just one and see if it fixes the issue. If not, then you may have to open a ticket with Netgear to process a replacement.

Let me guess all your switches have the similar uptimes and you don't have an active monitoring on the fans nd you found over time more nd more of these switches with the Fan LED warning on .... not that these fan failures happened the same moment.
The later one could proof difficult since (unless I'm not wrong) Netgear does no longer maintain the NETGEAR-BOXSERVICES-PRIVATE-MIB including fan, temperature, and power supply data on the Smart Managed Switches for a few years already.
In general, all these GS748Tv4 came with a limited life time warranty. Don't hesitate to open the hardware support tickets via https://my.netgear.com/
