In a reflecting telescope, the fan helps the primary mirror track the night time temps and therefore give the best views.
All that said, I'd just as soon use a hole saw to make circular openings for a 120MM fan or two in the computer lid or cover.

hopefully the small computer store will be open today.
Bryan has mentioned that theres not much airflow around the HDD cage and suggested not to max it out, this HDD cage appears kindof big for just 2 3.5" HDDs
in addition to the rear sys. fan would I benefit from having a intake fan in the lower front mounted dianglelly aiming up toward the HDDs?
Bryan you are correct when you wrote the whole HDD cage is removalable w/ the big screw.
