Server fans play a key role in maintaining the temperature at an optimal level. They operate at high speeds to ensure sufficient airflow within the server system, thereby cooling it. Most server fans are designed to operate at different speeds, which significantly enhances their efficiency. This means that when the server system is under load, the server fans operate at higher speeds to increase cooling, and when the load is light, the speed decreases. The main function of server fans is to ...
