Cooling fans
Your system supports seven hot swappable cooling fans.
NOTE:
In the event of a problem with a particular fan, the fan number is referenced by the system management software,
allowing you to easily identify and replace the proper fan by noting the fan numbers on the cooling fan assembly.
