Is this really poor design (the server vendor shall go nameless though
they are a tier-1) or am I expecting too much out of 1u server fans?
We had a supplier that liked to avoid putting the guards on the fans.
It's generally not a good thing ... there is injury risk as well other
issues (possible electrical shorts for cut wires, fan self destruction
due to impacts ... and subsequent shrapnel ...)
Whenever possible, we like to try to route wires away from the fans, or
if we have no choice due to length constraints, we will try to tie them
to rigid structures to prevent interference.
