3.5" Bay Blower Fan

The minicyber SB-F3 Fox-3 is a 12 V blower fan designed to mount in a standard 3.5 inch front bay. It measures 148 by 100 by 25 mm and spins at 2000 rpm to push strong convection airflow across installed drives. The Ever-Lubricate bearing keeps operating noise to 25 dBA while drawing power from a 3-pin motherboard header.

Suited for single-drive cooling.

Builders with one or two hard drives or SSDs in a 3.5 inch bay gain direct, focused airflow that lowers both drive and chassis temperatures. Systems that pack several drives into adjacent bays or rely on sealed liquid-cooling loops will not benefit from this single-bay form factor.

2000 rpm airflow at 25 dBA

The fan’s fixed 2000 rpm speed delivers the stated convection performance while the Ever-Lubricate bearing maintains the quoted 25 dBA noise level. This balance decides whether the cooler fits a quiet workstation or a performance build where higher static pressure or variable speed control are required.
