I got my NAS/SSD setup working perfectly, except, since it is a 4u server, it sound like a plane taking off!
It has 22 disks in it so far, copying files up to it as fast as I can, so I can sell the QNAP and Synology units I have
I need to find a way to set the fans slower. From what I can tell, the CPU units do not have fans, just heat sinks, but the whole array of 7 fans are currently plugged into a backplane with 7-4 pin connectors and then plugged into 4-pin CPU 1 FAN, labeled FAN8, which is where CPU fan is supposed to go, and then the system is configured to monitor CPU1 FAN to verify system health.
Nothing I do lowers the fans speed. I go into health and lower to 'ES-Energy saving or BL - Balanced'. The both are supposed to lower to either 30% of max speed
The system stays at room temp. I even pulled 2 fans and rpm of all others stay the same, temp stays the same. So I might pull 2 more, making 7 into 3. Problem is even 3 at 2900 will be loud. Much rather have 5 at 1600 or lower
