Just wanted to share a quick review, I installed a 12cm fan inside the box, and it looks great! Based on Zabbix monitoring, it has reduced CPU temperatures by 20°C. Since the setup is inside a closed rack, I don’t expect dust to be an issue. I’ll post an update next week with more temp readings.
While searching the MikroTik forum, I found various methods, including soldering, but I opted for a simpler approach. The fan I bought cost just $3 and runs on a USB connector.
Hope this helps anyone considering a similar mod!
