Hi.

I'm uncertain as to what your issue is.

Are you simply wondering about what fans to put where, or are you having an over-heating issue?

Or are you uncertain how to switch the fans?

...perhpas it is too early and I am still foggy...

i think to mount more fans in the front you need another i-cage i think that is what it is called. but that thing where the hard drives are mounted.

Without the 2nd i-cage you can't mount a 2nd fan. I have replaced my thunderblades with Red wings -

2x 120mm Red Wing (1 @ back, 1 @ front)
3x 90mm Red Wings (1 @ top, 1 @ back of HDD cage, 1 @ side panel)

I will get some picks on them mounted if you want

You can but the fans flex abit. I have 2 thunderblade fans on one single Icage by screwing the fans to the top and bottom mounting holes.

I use tie straps to mount them to the chassis. works fine and looks good with extra led fans in front. just tie em up right behind the front cover. the straps can be easily hidden.
