Appreciate the feedback. I collected some data to show what I am seeing (and hearing), for some reason the temperature and RPM readings of the fan vary over time with a certain interval. What's confusing is that the RPM of the fan falls below the minimum specified of 1350 RPM. But also the fan speed does not seem to react in a timely manner to an increase in temperature.
I found the minimum specified RPM specified in /ramfs/enclosure.cfg:

Which gets loaded at boot I believe from the database /frontview/conf/enclosure.db:
