Perfect, thanks.

Unlike the fans on NETGEAR ReadyNAS 102 and 104 which are Protechnic
MGT9212YB-025 92mmx92mm running at 3200 RPM max, the three fans in the
RN2120 are Protechnic MGT4012XB-O20, i.e. 40mmx40mm running at 8000 RPM
max. At least, this is the max RPM value I found on their website
(Search Products on left side of http://www.protechnic-us.com/en/) for
both devices.

When pushing one a bit, here is the max rotation speed I get:

root@thin:/sys/bus/i2c/drivers/g762/0-003e# echo 9000 > fan1_target ; \
sleep 5 ; cat fan1_input
8057

which AFAICT validates current settings for G762 and fan combination.
Did I miss something?

Cheers,
