1) Recommended Placement for the HD135
Placement of this system on a well-ventilated area (good intake of cold air and
release of hot air) allows efficient cooling of computer components even in low
RPM mode, which is the quietest operation. The noise level of the power supply
(main factor of noise emission) will also significantly decrease due to better cool-
ing efficiency.
There must be good airflow on the front and back side of the HD135 when plac-
ing it inside a cabinet.
Any other AV components or products must not be placed on top of the HD135.
2) Arrangement of System's Internal Cables
The internal airflow of the system makes a significant impact on the cooling of the
computer components. Even though the ergonomic design of the case itself is
very important, tying all the cables in a neat manner is the best method for creat-
ing great internal airflow. Pay special attention to make sure that the air vents,
and intake and exhaust fans are not blocked by the cables.
3) Optimal Fan Speed Control with M-Play Fan Control
Cooling performance and noise level can be set to user preference by controlling
the fan speed in M-Play's A.F.C mode.
Use the Temperature Sensor and the M-Play Fan Control to maintain the internal
temperature of the unit to be no greater than 40 .
