Default Corsair magnetic levitation fans (maglev fans)

Caveat:
Until the fans "fly" they are just like crappier-than-normal sleeve
bearings.
Expect lots of wear below a minimum RPM (that I don't think is specified
in the datasheet, although they may specify a minimum voltage or PWM duty
cycle).
Start and stop cycles will also cause wear.


How do you guarantee it to spin at maximum speed?
