Replacement fan for Netgate 8200
-
Is there a place to order a replacement fan for the Netgate 8200? Or a good aftermarket replacement? Since the day it arrived, mine makes "surging" sounds at higher rpms that are super annoying. I have isolated the sound to the fan on the bottom of the 8200.

If it's out of warranty can add a Noctua 15mm x 120mm fan or something similar. Can cut out the bottom panel a little to fit it with double sided tape. Mine is not audible at all and runs cooler. I could not stand the stock fan either. -
@aivxtla Did you use the builtin fan connector? Also was there any labelling on the stock fan? My 8200 is still under warranty but I really don't want to have to send it in for a fan swap.

@aholmes5 Yes the built in connector works. Just need to add rubber stoppers or the like to give enough space for airflow. Those are 1” ones in the image.
