CRU-DataPort RTX410-XJ. Running with 4x 8Tb SAS samsung drives. Running hard or idle, seems to always end up same: power fan running excessively, and main enclosure fan running seemingly fine, but producing very low airflow out of chassi. I assume some imbalance due to power fan sucking out all the air and main fan not able to blow out air due to this. Very noisy due to power fan. Any idea what this can be, or should it be like this?

Excessive noise from the power fan and low airflow from the main enclosure fan in a CRU Dataport RTX410-3QJ with 4x 8TB SAS Samsung drives could be caused by:

1. High power consumption or heat output from the SAS drives, which may cause the power fan to run at higher speeds.
2. The main enclosure fan (75mm exhaust fan) might be obstructed, malfunctioning, or not operating at full speed, resulting in low airflow.
3. Dust buildup or poor ventilation could also reduce airflow and increase fan noise.

Check fan operation and clean any dust or obstructions. Ensure the enclosure has adequate ventilation.
