If you have installed a Debian lenny ( kernel 2.6.26-2-iop32x ) on your Thecus 2100 NAS device the fan is not automatically controlled by default and it is running on a full speed. The default value is 255 as specified in :

cat /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-002e/pwm2

To change the default values use a echo command. For example to turn off the fan use:

echo 0 > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-002e/pwm2

NOTE:

if the pwm2 file did not produce the desired outcome you may try pwm1 instead.

The main reason to put a fan on lower RPM is to get rid of the noise. However, make sure that you check your hard drives temperature before you leave the fan turned off completely:

# apt-get install hddtemp
