System fans 1 to 3 are for the memory modules and processors, while system fan 4 is for the PCI slots and

system chipsets.

A new system fan can be installed to allow the server to operate properly in case a default system fan

becomes defective.
To remove the system fan:

1.

Disconnect the fan cable from its corresponding board connector.

2.

Release the fan cable from the cable clip securing it to the chassis partition wall.

3.

Squeeze the release tab on the system fan to release it from the chassis.

4.

Lift the system fan away from the chassis.
