Fans fail if MO unplugged?

Post by mmo »

What would happen to the case/cpu fans if I were using the MO to control the fans but the USB cable was accidentally unplugged? Would they still run and at what speed? How about at intitial startup if the cable was unplugged? thanks, mmo

Hi mmo,

Thank you for posting on the forum.

The fans will run at the speeds the unit was last set at. This will be the case if the unmodified floppy power cable was still plugged in.

If you are plugging it in initially, then the fans will spin at the default speed it was set at. The default fan speed should be set at 100%.

If you have anymore questions or concerns, please feel free to post them.

Best Regards,
