HP’s ‘fanless’ Chromebox has a fan

Despite Hewlett Packard’s marketing claims, the company’s Chromebox does contain a fan.






With Intel’s Next Unit of Computing — or NUC — trying to steal the spotlight as the ultra-small form factor desktop PC, it’s important to remember that there’s also another competitor in the space: the Chromebox.

Google’s Chromebook for the desktop advertises itself, like Intel’s NUC, but there’s one problem: it’s not. *FanlessTech got their hands on one of HP’s “fanless” Chromeboxes, and, surprisingly the device has a fan. It’s even in the disassembly instructions provided by HP.
