Does this dock have an internal fan?

No, Graham, it does not have a fan. Runs cool with a 2tb WD Red drive in it tho.

Yes, it does! With or without a plastic dock. I am very pleased with my purchase, but wonder the more expensive, upgraded system differs. Any opinions? The price, the sound is terrific , the passive bass impressive; you can hear it all over the house, and the color changing system comes in two modes; fast and slow. Makes an unusually great little nightlight too; just night enough to allow you not to bump into anything, but not so bright as to keep you awake, depending on where you place it, of course. It's nice to beblulled off to sleep with your favorite selections of songs; always your choice. Raja.

I haven't looked inside this unit, but I don't believe there is a fan inside it. It has side air inputs and a rear air output for cooling purposes. It makes no noise whatsoever. Hope this helps.

No, fan. My drive sounds like a fan is inside. Just the high rpm. The drive enclosure look to provided satisfactory cooling. I have it hooked to a X1 and it goes to sleep when the X1 does.

Yes, it has no fans. I just would highly advise you use something else because the glacial performance that the Drobo software imposes on the system. Four SSD's in the Mini array are slower than a single SSD connected via thunderbolt

I have not purchased a docking station for this laptop. It does seem to overheat and the fan has started making noises periodically. We keep ours on a stand to allow air circulation, but have no plans to order a docking station. If it didn't overheat would get another one. Like the keyboard feel, except for the issue with the keys I mentioned before-which I seem to have solved- and the screen is great.

No it does not. However it does posses all required slots/ports to install one yourself.

I've had this for so long now I've forgotten if this was an inside/outside fan. Best to ask the mfg to be sure. Sorry.

Yes it has a fan. I used this live quite a few times and even a few house parties where it ran all night. I have never had a problem with it

Yes the unit that I bought came with a fan. There are 2 pictures for this unit. You can see the fan in the second picture.

No, unfortunately it does not. I would recommend something like this: Lasko #2004W 6-Inch 2-SPEED White Clip Fan

This heater does have the fan in it but barely pushes the air. We found an external fan really improves the airflow and makes a huge difference in circulation of the heated air.

It does not have an internal fan. However, the unit emits a quite but high pitched squeal. Mine is about 4-5 feet away from my chair and it does not bother me at all. You have to be very close to detect the noise.

No, the fan is self contained and very quiet. I did have to modify one of mine with a Drexel though, but they was due to a problem with the case, not the fan

NO!!! it does not. I ordered this thinking it was compatible but the docking ports do not line up. I returned it.

Yes. There is a rail across the top back of the unit. It crosses from one arm of the big fan to the other. It is predrilled to mount cooling fans on it. This thing is great. I got an I7 4930 to over clock to 5.1 GHZ, when in my old case, the most I could get was 4.7. Just remember to put it in a dust free place or put a towel or something over it when you are not using it. It is also very big. It has a huge footprint. You'll need the space of 2 normal cases.
