Hi All,

Maybe this will help someone else (maybe others have already found a resource?).

I was having problems finding a replacement fan for a OS7100. The original fan had become noisy, but was not throwing an alarm. The original factory fan is a "Nonoise G60115S12C2". Which is apparently mis-named <grin>.

I finally found one.. a "MECHATRONICS 60X60X15MM 12V FAN WITH LOCKED ROTOR ALARM SIGNAL, MODEL G6015M12B2-RH". I ordered it from COOLER GUYS.COM (no affiliation)... $12.95 plus $5.00 shipping (USPS).

Apparently the trick is getting a fan with "Locked Rotor Alarm Signal" as the third wire. Other fans that I tried, would still throw a fan alarm intermittently every 10 to 20 seconds.

While not a "drop in" replacement... (the fan comes with flying leads), I just spliced the new fan onto the old fan leads (soldered, then heat shrink tubing). You could probably get by with "twist and tape" in a pinch. Four screws... two to take the top cover off, two to remove the fan.

Not sure if the fan is the same in other models (OS7200, OS7400).

Good Luck.

The os7100 fan is different to the 7200/7400.

Samsung did have a fan tray for the 7200/7400 as a spare, but you couldn't just buy the individual fan, you had to take if off the tray.
It was quicker and easier to replace the whole tray.

That is the part number for the Samsung 7100 fan any dealer should have been able to order it
