I recently bought an OWC Thunderbay 4 Mini (a 4-bay enclosure for 2" inch drives, which I'm using with SSDs).
Long story short, I expected it to have a Noctua fan (I confirmed with OWC before ordering) but it has a Sunon. OWC agreed to send a Noctua fan to swap out, but they sent another Sunon. I asked again, and this time they said they don't have any Noctuas now, and they won't get me one. Have a nice day! (=FU)
I ordered a Noctua NF-A6x25 FLX, but it has a larger 3-pin connector and a different pinout.
Noctua's connector look like these: https://landing.coolermaster.com/faq/3-pin-and-4-pin-fan-wire-diagrams/ (Noctua says they've standard motherboard connectors, but don't provide specifics.)
Sunon's look something like this: https://www.picclickimg.com/d/l400/pict/123643211965_/Lot-of-10-Sunon-30mm-Laptop-Fans-5V.jpg
(Sorry - I don't have a place to post photos at the moment.)
I don't know the technical names for either of these connectors, but I'm wondering if there's such a thing as an adapter cable for this kind of problem.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
