I’m making a homeassistant sever with my raspberry pi and and i’m wondering since it’s going to be on 24/7 that the fans going to wear out much faster than intended. I can’t imagine that I would need a fan ontop of a heat sink and thermal paste it can’t get that hot? I should also note that i’m using an Argon V2 it’s one of those heat sink cases that are made for raspberry pis

    Argon case comes with software which controls fan speed and turns it off for temperatures below +50°. My RasPi with HA never went above +45°, the fan inside never turned on. I’m using it for two years now.
