The fan trays in the FSX 1600 are located in the top rear of the chassis.

The fans cool the CPU, main memory, and voltage regulators. The fans move the air from the front of
the device to the rear of the device, as shown in the figure below.

The table below shows the airflow and acoustic level for each fan speed setting on the FSX 1600
chassis. The noise level varies on each side of the chassis and is highest at the rear of the chassis
where the fans are located.
