Node 304 fan upgrade

[JJT211]

I'm looking to upgrade the fans on my Node 304 since ive been getting more disk 40C overheating warnings since I've maxed out the HDD (6x4tb) in my box.

Since the Node 304 is such a popular box, I'm wondering what others have used in theirs. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

noctua makes an awesome 80mm fan that I was going to switch to if temps where an issue for me but that never happened. Go check out their selection. Are you using the fan controller provided for the case?

You mean the switch on the back?? Yea, I got it set to high

Cool, just double checking. Get those noctua fans and see if things get better.

OK cool thanks! Those Noctua's are highly recommended just about everywhere Ive read regarding the Node 304.

Just ordered 2 x 92mm Noctua NF-B9 PWM's for the front and 1 x 140 mm NF-A14-PWM for the rear.
