The new fan has a CFM of 27 m³/h, which seems to be higher than the original fan... I hope I'm safe :) Hi, i have a couple of questions: Which model is currently in the duo? What´s the impact on the temperatures. Did you noticed any improvement? I have 2 500GB HDD´s in my duo and the temperatures with the original fan are for both HDD´s 44-46 °C I planing in fact to use this fan: http://www.papst.de/index/sid/30B11206- ... rent_id%3D

I don't know what the temperature was before, but right now I have 2 500GB HDD with one on 43 C temp and the other at 36 C. The NAS has been powered in all day and music has been playing from one of the HDD now for at least 5 hours.

Fan 1 1923 RPM

I believe the Papst fan will work good.
