Proprietary 5 pin Fan connector

This is the Case Fan Pinout for the Proliant ML310 Generation 1, may be compatible to other Proliant Servers and ML310 Generations.

Uses non-standard 5-Pin-Fan-Connector, possibly to lock out cheap 3rd party fans.

The only special lines are the "Status"-Line and the 5th Pin. For normal operation, Status (Pin 2) is tied to Pin 1 (GND). An Open Pin 2 means either "Fan not present" or "Fan Failure". The 5th Pin may be a PWM-Control Signal for the Fan, but it is not necessary to connect it.
