It looks like the HardRock will be able to accommodate the smaller existing RP64 heatsink/fan. Looking at the pictures, it looks like it might be possible that the 2 pins right next to the GPIO are for a fan.

interesting !! I wonder which is more efficient the smaller direct heatsink/fan or a large heatsink but case integrated fan ? I guess the added benefit of the case fan is that it potentially keeps the SSD's cool as well.
now I'm starting to lean more towards the Rockpro and NAS case as it would be good to keep the drives cool as using Jellyfin does make the drives warm up a bit. The Odroid HC1 I currently use causes the attached drive to warm to 54 °C which is a little warmer than I would prefer although within limits.
