Pro 6 airflow direction

i have quite a curious situation. I own two Pro 6, and the airflow is not the same on both machines.

On the newer one, the air gets sucked from the harddisk and from the side and the hot air gets expelled from the back.

On the other one, the air gets sucked from the back, then hot air comes out from the side, and from the hard disk door.


Which one is the correct way?

  • So, nobody can check on their Pro 6 in which direction the air flows?
  • Both my Pro 6 and older Pro BE exhaust to the back. There was corrective action for units with improperly connected fans quite a long time ago. I was not affected and don't recall the specifics. You should do a search.
