A really silent fan!
The fan of my ReadyNAS NV+ was too noisy for desktop use in the long run, I actually had it tucked away in a closet to keep the fan noise away from my desk. Searching the net for a more quiet option, ...
The fan will speed up if its needed.
So unless your stock fan runs at top speed all the time your quieter fan will just speed up a litle.
The fan that is in the Duo is a Crown AGE06025 and should do 34.84 CFM.
The replacement fan i got is a Fractal design silent series 60 mm and it can do 16 CFM.
But the replacement fan keeps the drive cooler at idle, with the stock fan i had a temperature at ~40-42 C, now i have 30 C (thats unusual low, normally 35 C).
And i can feel that the replacement fan pumps much more air trough than the stock fan, both at "idle speed" and when i recalibrate
