Was looking at some different fan options to replace all my Nexus RealSilent fans.

See that the new modular Sharkoon Silent Eagle fans have been getting some great reviews. Did a bunch of searching and all I can find is that the bearings are "Enduro" bearings.

Can anyone tell me what the bearing type is on these and if they are suitable to mount upside down inside the case top for exhausting hot air?

My Nexus is sleeve bearing and makes a bit of noise sometimes obviously....need to find something that is ball bearing.

Thanks, Shawn

Here's spec page with PDF specs:
