I need a fan controller. Both of these are suitable for purchase in the UK and are similarly priced:

TT HardCano 9

Vantec Nexus 201

The HardCano9 also comes with the dual temperature measurement kit which might come in useful, however I already have a HardCano5 which provides one temperature readout. On the other hand, the Vantec looks the part and has LED's.

The molex fan connectors provided for the Hardcano9 and 3pin for the Vantec are both OK and its not an issue.

So which is better? Does anyone have either of these? Do either hum loudly?
Help me ppl!

I am a proud owner of the nexus 201. Bottom line: it does what it is supposed to do. It looks good, it adjust fan speeds, it has cool lights. The buzzing is barely audible...I can't notice it even with all the fans turned down completely. I think it depends on how close the case is to your head...mine is on the ground with a door over it (chenming server case). I think the sunbeam rheobus has no buzzing, if you wanna go with that option, but it doesn't look as good and the led's are supposedly really bright. I'd go for the nexus over the hardcano...
