## Description

The NF-A8 is a premium 80mm silent fan with many optimizations. Featuring an AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame and a well-designed aerodynamic design (such as Flow Acceleration Channels), the NF-A8 pushes the limits of silent cooling achieved by the famous NF-R8 even further. The FLX version allows speed adjustment at 2000/1650 or 1200 rpm thanks to the use of a low noise adapter (LNA). This device thus guarantees total flexibility through a tailor-made adjustment of the speed of rotation for increased ventilation or almost inaudible operation. It boasts Noctua build quality and features the SSO2 Bearing, the go-to benchmark, which ensures flawless operation, making it the absolute weapon of the most demanding users.

Review: Well I'm a fan! - Noctua always produce top quality products - this is no exception. Note, this is the DC version - if you're fitting in a PC case pay the extra for the PWM version.
Review: Excellent Fans for the Synology DS1513+ - I purchased two of these fans to replace the two fans in my Synology DS1513+ NAS box. The old fans were over ten years old and the bearings were wearing out and creating noise. These new fans fit perfectly and eliminated my noise problem. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

## Questions & Answers

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Fans for the Synology DS1513+
*by R***D on 1 November 2025*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Un clásico para quien busca el silencio
*by J***O on 16 May 2016*

Tengo un NAS Synology DS1513+ desde hace dos años y siempre he encontrado muy molestos los dos ventiladores que trae de origen. Soy fiel a Noctua y me puse manos a la obra. Tras unos cuantos clicks por internet supe del tipo de ventiladores a usar y fui directamente a por unos Noctua NF-8 FLX que ya he usado previamente con otros tamaños y usos. Qué decir del cambio? La noche y el día como siempre, la reducción de ruido de funcionamiento fue drástica con los Noctua y encima con mas caudal de aire. La calidad de fabricación, como es habitual en Noctua, es de cinco estrellas. Estos ventiladores vienen equipados con todos los accesorios posibles y el nivel de acabado está al máximo nivel... eso se paga con un precio mas caro, pero finalmente las ventajas de trabajar en silencio ganan con creces el precio algo elevado. Producto totalmente recomendable con los ojos cerrados.
