Great fan for the original PS5 at a great price, with one possible consideration.
I am not one to write a lot of reviews but definitely wanted to leave one for this to help other's decide if they want to purchase for themselves for one big reason. The "auto off/on" feature.But first, one of the main things everyone wants to know, "Is it loud?" Well that is always a subjective question and will depend on your gaming setup. I have my system setup with a surround sound so it is typically louder than your average TV speakers.While the fan does have two speeds to allow you to choose how much air you want it to move to keep your system cool that will obviously affect the sound coming from the unit. I found that the low speed will be decent enough for most situations and isn't much louder than the a computer fan. The high setting sounds about twice as loud much like a computer on the verge of overheating. I found on either setting I really only noticed it when the system was starting up due to the lack of sound coming from the system, but then completely forgot about it once the game started. If you're in a quiet room, or wearing headphones, it will be noticeable, but hopefully not annoying for you. I also did not experience any weird noises as found in some of the other reviews.Now for the "auto off/on" and the one reason I almost returned the product. The fan uses the power from the USB port on the PS5 and will only shut off if you completely turn off your PS5. If you are like me and put yours into Rest mode to allow updates and remote game installs this would normally mean that it will keep running all the time. This was not something I wanted to have happen for fear of ruining either device or wasting power, and did not want to have to manually turn off/on the fan every time either. I did find a bit of a work around that may work for others and is why I decided to leave this review.If you didn't already know you can change the USB power Settings to turn off while it is in Rest mode. Updating to off will make the fan turn completely off while you are not actively using the unit. Now the draw back is if you are using any of the USB ports to charge devices they will no longer continue to charge while in Rest mode. This was not an issue for me as I have the PlayStation controller charger and plugged my Pulse 3D headset into a different outlet.One thing to be aware of with this workaround is that for some reason the fan will shut off, come back on, and then shut off completely after putting the PS5 into Rest mode. Not exactly sure why it does this but I am sure it is due to something in how the PS5 cycles the shut down.Hopefully you find this review useful in making your decision!

Great purchase
What a great purchase, It really helps keeping temps stable for long playing sessions. Noise isn't bad, and the build quality is fantastic. Is basically a plug and play accessory. Get yours.

Loud but works ๐
I see what people mean by it being too loud. But it helps keep my console cool....er than normal. It's honestly insanely concerning how badly these consoles heat up now.....

Cost effective and useful
The item is working excellent and as intended , very happy with the cost effective purchase. I donโt use my ps5 horizontally, ima computer tech so I just clean and repair my own if need be. Hoping it doesnโt come to that either. But an extra set of fans to help keep cool is definitely a no brainer. Happy camper here (:
