does this have an internal fan for cooling
262195
No there is no internal fan. There is built in thermal protection, meaning if it gets to hot it shuts itself down until it cools down, so it must be mounted where there is adequate airflow for it to stay cool or it will cut in and out. I have two of these. In one car it is installed under the drivers seat which seems to have plenty of cooling as it does not ever seem to overheat. In my other car it is hidden in the back in a cavity behind some interior pieces. This one does not seem to have adequate airflow to stay cool as it does cut out sometimes. I will probably be moving that one to under the passenger seat instead.

If it had a fan I think I would have heard it by now. I have never had an overheating problem, even when my car is in the sun.

The answer to both is NO. The 8psk must be installed. there is no cooling fan, but the unit does not have an internal power supply which reduces the internal heat substanstially.

No, it is a closed loop cooler like one for the CPU. It is maintenance free.

Yes, it has a 7 slot lay out in the rear. You will need to purchase fans, or a water cooling system.

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.

Mine has two small cooling fans. About the size of fans you see in a computer. Seems to do the job.

It does not. You fan find an Intel one here: http://www.amazon.com/Intel-BXRTS2011AC-Thermal-Solution-Air/dp/B006588YUE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1393305187&sr=8-1&keywords=lga+2011+cpu+fan

It does have a fan, but it's very quiet. Bluetooth has never worked on mine, and I had to install a micro-USB Bluetooth adapter to get Bluetooth.

Shame on you for poor product knowledge, Sam Ash.... This unit DOES indeed have a cooling fan, and although it's not terribly loud, it's far from quiet. Not for use in a recording situation...

yes, it has an internal fan that blows the heat across the elements and into the room. Two speeds, low and high. overall, very quiet. I am extremely happy with this product and am considering purchasing a second unit for our basement.

It does not have a fan, when plugging in the hard drive the same is exposed and has no need for a fan. I have a hard drive plugged in that's similar to the one in my desktop and use it to update on a weekly basis a clone copy (mirror Image) of my hard drive. This is done in conjunction Carbonite Back ups.
