I’m looking for 80mm fans to replace the stock ones in my NAS. The stock ones are
48.6-5-64.1 CFM
5.8 - 12.5 mmH2O
39.5-48.0 dB(A)
I’ve been unable to further narrow it down due to ambiguous labeling.
I tried a Noctua 80mm fan (Noctua NF-A8 PWM), and while it theoretically has a large CFM, the static pressure is too low.
55.5 CFM
2.37 mmH2O
17.7 dB(A)
Sucking in air through all the hard drive cages is apparently a little too tough. I have yet to systematically measure the system temp, but it is warmer.
So I have looking for a 80mm fan with the following characteristics:
Around 50 CFM
Around 5-7 mmH2O
Under 38 dB(A)
48.6-5-64.1 CFM
5.8 - 12.5 mmH2O
