My Azbox has a fan which is quite noisy for me.
It is quite strange that the design has been changed from standard Premium decoder which was very cool and does not need any fan.
Now I see this choice, instead of using a passive cooling system.
I don't know if the fan on my receiver simply has some problem and it's so noisy also for other users.
What is your impression?
Did you tried anything to reduce the noise for i.e.
- replacing the fan
- keep the fan off, simply using external hdd for all recording features?

I read on other forum that, for some users, if you have an internal hard disk, it is recommended to use the fan to avoid heating issues, expecially on the tuners area.

Any experience?
