Fan installation

Question

Just got a replacement NMB fan from Dell. Which way do I install it? The original Datech fan was installed with the label facing the outside of the case so you can see it through the grid in the back of the system. Do I install the new fan in the same way?

Without waiting for a reply from Dell, if the label is oriented the same way relative to the fan blades on the original fan, I'd say go ahead and install it the same way. Have fun!
