CPU and Fan upgrades
Hi there, I'm new here - just wanted to confirm that my current upgrades all worked as planned. My "old" ReadyNAS PRO 6 bought in 2012 - at first equipped with 6 X 2TByte disks - in 2013 upgrade...
I upgraded my Pro Pioneer to a quad core and 8 MB ram with the stock fans no problem. Temp of CPU is 30C even under heavy load. First time for me to install a new CPU with Arctic Silver and I used too much. CPU overheated. I cleaned up my thick layer of Arctic Silver and everything is OK. So, for me, that was a more significant issue than the fans
My CPU: Xeon X3230 2.66 GHz 95w. By contrast, a Q6600 is 2.4 GHz and 105w, so might run hotter.

Hi Labdoc1,
Can you please confirm that you upgraded a Pro Pioneer (RNDP600E) to the Xeon X3230?
Thanks!

Looks like you did goodrip12. In any case the Pro BE has the same hardware as the Pro Pioneer just a different software feature set on RAIDiator 4.2.x.
