How to control fanspeed on a RN104
On special request, here is a workaround for controling the fanspeed of the RN104 ( most likely the same on a 102). For this you will have to SSH in to the NAS. Thanks to Moseleypj for doing the ...

Woohoo - thanks guys - its now working for me :D
I tried Note++ and still got the same error message (saved the file as a *.* type) so went into Vi on a terminal (using the GateOne app) and as you guys said, the carriage return was being a problem - each line had ^M at the end so I deleted those and tried the steps again and all now working great - the fan spun up to 2500RPM within seconds using a max temp of 75. The service can be loaded and unloaded with no problems
Seriously thinking about changing max temp to 65 though (anyone have any thoughts on dropping the max temp that low?) - my NAS is tucked away in a room where the noise is of no bother to anyone - it now seems to be idling at the following rate:
Fan - 1241RPM
CPU - 53
Disk 1 - 37
Disk 2 - 39
Disk 3 - 40
Disk 4 - 37
(these are 2Tb WD Red drives)
Saketb - if you want I can email you over the 2 files that are working for me? That might help you
thanks all
