    Hi everyone!
    Do you think its possible to make a list for a Z830 production time frame to see if the fan noise is related to different batches of Z830's??

    I think the problem is with all of them. However, with bearings and grease amounts varying; the noise might be lower/higher depending on your specific unit.

    Yeah I see. Just I thought there may be certain bad batches that could be identified
