Not unlike those old HDDs you hear about that if they ever stop, they won’t spin up again. Were sorry but English Community-Lenovo Community doesnt work properly without JavaScript enabled.
In my experience, fans have died quicker when turning on and off. The fan automatically spins up and spins down as required). It is possible that one of your fan's is dead (there's physical damage to. If you have another model, it most likely means that the fan did not report any data to MFC. (In my newer gaming laptop, there is no such setting. Why is Macs Fan Control reporting 0rpm for one of my fans It's ok if you have MacBook Pro 13 inch 2015/2016, these models turn off the fan when the CPU temperature is low enough. While one can never predict when exactly mechanical parts like fans fail, what is Neowinians' experience in general with fans failing? Will the fan fail more quickly if left to run non-stop or the chances of a fan failing are less if left to run non-stop at a constant speed? Because otherwise it will spin down and only speed up when under load.Īny advice on the optimum setting would be welcome. I don't want this replacement fan to fail again. But what is the OPTIMUM setting from a longevity point of view for the fan, not the laptop? Its original fan failed so I replaced it with a new one which keeps it cool now. I don't mind the very slight noise the fan makes as it is still relatively quiet and keeps the laptop cool. So one of my old laptops has a setting 'Fan always on when on AC power' in its UEFI.
