Cooling fans
The cooling fans are integrated into the system to dissipate the heat generated by the functioning of the system. These fans provide
cooling for the processors, expansion cards, and memory modules.
Your system supports up to eight standard cooling fans.
NOTE:
•
Mixing of standard cooling fans is not supported.
•
Each fan is listed in the systems management software, referenced by the respective fan number. If there is a problem with a
particular fan, you can easily identify and replace the proper fan by noting the fan number on the system.
