The appliance seems to be a great way to extend a home NAS, keeping the disks tidily mounted in the rack. However, there is an issue that is impossible to ignore if you keep the rack in a room where you spend a lots of time &#8211; two small fans that come preinstalled with the box are so noisy, that I had to disconnect the fans after just a few minutes of operation. The noise is ridiculous &#8211; it is as if the fans&#8217; role is not to discretely keep the disk a bit cooler, but to produce as much whistling sounds as possible. The remedy is relatively easy, albeit a bit tricky, because the fans are so tightly sealed to the board that a lots of patience is required to remove the seal (the yellow thingie on the photo) and disconnect the noise-makers.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.simulakrum.diskstation.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image3-1-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-98\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.simulakrum.vpndns.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image3-1-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.simulakrum.vpndns.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image3-1-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.simulakrum.vpndns.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image3-1-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.simulakrum.vpndns.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image3-1-1-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.simulakrum.vpndns.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image3-1-1-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just got the Sedna 1U Rackmount USB 3.1 Gen II 10GBP Dual Bay Hard Disk RAID Enclosure, and while waiting for the proper disks, I&#8217;ve decided to give it a spin with some spare disks laying around.
