So, just got the S7-F1 hooked up and running. Temps are low today, in the 60's so I went ahead and let it ride at 700 and it's holding steady at 59c on the highest blade with .0005% error rate. Going to let this go for a bit as the temps will rise into the 70's next week. I will keep you all updated on how it goes. As for the noise it does seem a bit quieter than the others but since they are all on the same rack it's hard to tell.
Also, the packaging was all updated, new foam, smaller box etc... So this was definitely not just a stop putting one of the fans on redesign

what/how does the backplate look like. is it a completely new panel or did they slap the grate over the old one? (can you screw mount a fan to the back?)
If possible many of us would love if you could post some pictures of it. If you could get all 4 sides and a few extra shots would be a great addition to this thread. If you have a decent camera please think of this
As soon as I get back to the house tonight I will do that. The backplate looks to be a new panel. Does not look like it will be easy to add a second fan, there are no pre-tapped places to bolt it to anyway... you might be able to take the backplate off and attache the fan to the plate with some washer/nut combo then reattach the plate but that would be about the easiest way I could see of doing it.
