KLund1 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I would like to replace the loud fan in a Megafile30. Anyone know the correct size before I have to crack it open? It is a 12v fan yes/no? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterMotorola Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I'm pretty sure that the Megafiles, Mega STe, and TT030 all use 60mm fans. I recently replaced the fan in my TT with a Noctua NF-A6x25 premium fan and it is practically silent. Many Atari users have recommended Noctua fans and now I can see why. For a sound comparison of the original fan to the Noctua, watch this video (not mine)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterMotorola Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Glad that was helpful. Just measure the original fan because I now believe the Falcon, Megafile, and Mega ST use 40mm fans versus the 60mm in the TT/Mega STe. Another Noctua fan replacement... https://www.exxoshost.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=595 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
