RE: [cobalt-security] Raq4 rebooting itself

["Brian" <brian-lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have had to replaced several cooling fans on my RaQ4's, so I went
ahead and purchased 10 fans to have on hand - just in case...

I got mine from

Search for part number KDE1235PFB1-8. Very inexpensive ($12.00 per fan)
yet a great thing to have on shelf.

Sorry for the late addition.

I too had a RaQ4 rebooting, and misbehaving.  It was also traced to a
bad cooling fans.  Once they were replaced, I've had no reboots since.

Makes we wonder if we should all be checking our cooling fans.  The Raq4
hardware might be getting a little old.....
