I'v got this box for external scsi stuff. Apart from a scsi device it
contains a power supply that is cooled by a fan. The distance between
the fan and the circuitry of the power supply is ca. 12 cm, so it is
not like there is a strong wind blowing through it. Apart from the
fan, there are plenty of air openings in the box.
What could happen if I would turn of this fan? I mean, would this in
the end lead to a dead or burned power supply or could it work just
fine... the oldesy compacts didn't have a fan and neither do the
modern iMacs, so this fan is maybe something I could do without...
What kind of precautions should I take when turning of the fan?
Any ideas? Any experiences?
I think about putting a hard disk in this box and connecting it to a
plus that I'd like to setup as a silent server (an even more silent
alternative to my already pretty silent se).
