Does anyone use/know about the Vantec Nexus fan controller? (specifically the NXP-201). The fan headers are only the traditional 3 pin things. Is there a way I can connect standard molex connectors to those headers? Also, I'd like to put the CPU fan (a Tornado...go figure) on the bus. Vantec's site even says something like "great for the Vantec Tornado", so there must be a way to connect fans using standard molex to it. In any case, I'm confused.

If this is not a desirable product, can somebody point me to one that is?
 
Your Vantec didn't come with adapters? My 205 came with app. 10" headers with a male 3-pin and 4pin on one end and a 3-pin female on the other. Did you check newegg to see if they sell them?
 
I have 305 I think the 3.5" one and it came with 3 to 4 pin tail thing and 2 blue CC lights
 
All you need is a 4-pin molex to 3-pin adapter. I'm suprised because when I had my Nexus, it came with some....
 
I haven't bought one yet, but I couldn't find a mention of the molex connectors on the egg or vantec's website, but I've since found them in a review, and in your posts. Are you guys satisfied with the nexus? Would it work well for slowing down a Tornado fan blowing on the CPU HS?
 
Mine works just fine. Controls 6 Vantec Stealths and has been flawless. That's really about all you can expect, right?
