How to remove the Readynas Pro CPUfan
Hello, I asked if it was possible to remove the HDD from a broken Readynas Ultra6 and transfer it to a new Readynas. I was unable to get a used Readynas, but finally was able to get a used Readynas...
I don't know what "U-shaped plastic hook" you refer to. Normally, there are four small clips that hold the base of the fan to the rest of the heat sink. You don't remove the entire heat sink unless you are replacing/upgrading the CPU. You do need to pry them back ever so slightly to remove the fan. But use care, as they can get brittle with age.
Maybe post a photo?
