*** WARNING *** I am a complete newbie at this!

So I just received a new Nutanix rack mounted server from a friend, two nodes and I don’t intend to run Nutanix on it.

I don’t have a rack or means of mounting it so it is just sitting on a table for now, without any soundproofing. Is it possible to use pwm to control the fans? As far as i can tell, the motherboard can control the fan speeds, like at startup.

Could i replace the fans with a noctua fan?

    IIRC Nutanix use rebadged Supermicro servers. What size boxes are they, and what hardware do they have in?

      I’m not sure. The guy who gave it to me got it on a dumpster dive. As far as I know its from 2021 with a Zeon E or something
