Tech Tangents | Silencing Server Fans With a Corsair Commander Pro @TechTangents | Uploaded April 2021 | Updated October 2024, 23 hours ago.
I decided to give in an get a USB fan controller for my server and man am I glad I did!

I'm really happy I went with this in the end even though it just piled more cost onto the project that is now embarrassingly expensive. But it took a mixed outcome with the fans and made it a phenomenal solution for silencing my server enough to work next to. It's quiet enough that I did voice over work next to it for this video and it can't even be heard.
