Yeah there's one on each corner... Found this pic on the net of that fan tore apart. Let me tell ya it has a hell of a lot more power than a standard fan. I slipped and got my finger in it once and it torethe hell out of me :D

thanks for the pic, explains a lot

I was thinking that the motors were horizontal instead of vertical, but then i couldnt see how the screws would go through it

Help! I bought this fan, it installed very easily. When I booted my computer , it said no CPU fan found. I checked everything and rebooted. I got the same response. The fan was spinning but I assume the feedback was not returning the signal. I had to reinstall the factory fan.... that sucked..... and now am lost as what to do. I know I intalled properly because the factory fan is sending feedback. Maybe the feedback board in the fan? Any Ideas?

the holes are 70mm holes greg just checked it against a 60 i have sitting here... Dopey there's an option in the bios to disable the cpu fan warning thing. I can't get mine board to read the RPM from this fan either so i had to disable the warning... after that the comp will run just like normal. i think this fan having 4 motors really screws with the motherboard when sensing the speed of it.
