2.10.2 HDD fan

To remove the HDD fan:

1. Loosen the thumb screw that

secures the HDD fan cage to the
chassis.

2. Hold the outer side of the fan

cage, then pull sideways to
release it from the chassis.

3. Disconnect the 3-pin fan cable

from the fan connector on the
backplane before completely
detaching the fan cage from the
chassis.

Due to space constraints inside the chassis, some cables may interfere
with the removal of the fan cage. To easily remove the fan cage, try to
slightly push it inward (toward the motherboard) before pulling it out of
the chassis.

3. Push the fan into the chassis

until the four hooks lock securely
into the holes on the rear panel.

4. Re-connect the 3-pin fan cable

from the connector
SYSTEM_FAN on the
motherboard.
