    622 Freezes

    Yes, the USB is powered (not sure if you must have the external drive enabled or not to get the power to it) and have heard people having success using it to drive a laptop cooler type fan set. So true. Thank you for the lesson. I always thought we should be putting heat sinks on the hard...

    Wow, I'm impressed. Goal acheived, now lets get down to the nuts and bolts. None of that is important because we have no control over it, unless you work for E*, then redo your calcs and fix it for us. The bottom line and what you need to focus on for the purpose of this board is it does not...

    No one is ingnorant in this world because everyone has their area of expertise. You will need to experiment, but I would try pulling the hot air up and out of the unit first. I appologize for not providing wiring details. Electrical wiring is just too dangerous to provide those details here...

    You mean the 622 is sitting on its right-side? If so, I would not do that as the internal fan needs the righ-side smaller slotted area to flow air through and you probably are not getting as much forced air coling as designed, even if the fan controls were working properly. The fan I am using...

    Are the terms PHD and Heathkit familiar. I learned along time ago the framed thing on the wall really means nothing. Break the glass and use it as a dart board. Actually my expertise is in building race engines, so I know alot about heat, and got shocked once so I am familiar with electricity...

    You are right. It could be a single electronic component in all 5 units I had that is the issue. Please explain further your reasoning.

I have had 4 reman units and two technicians out since and all do the same thing and none of the techs...

    After 4 Failed Receivers I just Canceled

    I had a unit that worked fine for a year start spontaneously rebooting. 4 reman units later all did the same thing and a little investigation yields the power supply is overheating due to the new 449 software fan control code. Fan not speed up when hot, cause overheat, lead to reboot and...

    The counters will not show power supply temp, only HDD temp. It is the power supply that is overheating not the HDD. The fan control software 449 is broke. That is the common thread with all the heating issues. So get a new unit and don't let it overheat by throwing lots of air right from the...

    Do not discard the overheating issue so fast. The 449 software update appears to not control the internal fan properly. Throw air at the left side. Get a new unit if you can and throw air at it so it does not overheat. That's how it worked with mine and 4 622 units later.
