ENERMAX Launches the D.F. STORM 3500 RPM, Self-Cleaning Fan
ENERMAX releases D.F. STORM fan, the new flagship 120mm fan which can operate at 3500RPM. The D.F. Storm can generate strong airflow up to 155.08(CFM) and static pressure as high as 11.131(mm-H2O). Furthermore, the high-speed fan includes the latest DFRTM technology for self-cleaning and the patented APS PWM design, which makes this fan an excellent cooling choice for servers, industrial applications or high-performance gaming rigs.
This super high-speed fan employs the Storm-Flow blades specifically designed to be used under extreme conditions. The solid design and the special shape of the fan blades will ensure low-vibration during operation. Unlike other high-RPM fans using two-ball bearing, D.F. STORM utilizes the ultra-silent Twister Bearing technology to deliver silent operation; moreover; its high-quality and heat-resistant components ensure 160,000 hours MTBF, even at high operating temperature.
Exclusive Adjusted Peak Speed (APS) Design to Give 3 Different Speed Ranges
D.F. STORM series is built with the patented APS design which provides 3 different speed ranges to satisfy different cooling needs: Performance Mode (1500~2200RPM), Overclocking Mode (1500~2800RPM) and Turbo Mode (1500~3500RPM). With an APS control switch, users can adjust the speed modes much easier; the LED indicator at the back of the fan can reveal the speed mode. Within the selected RPM range, the fan is controlled by pulse width modulation (PWM). The APS design gives users greater flexibility in choosing the preferred fan speed to cool their rigs.
Innovative Dust Free Rotation (DFRTM) Technology to Remove Dust
The DFRTM technology can help reduce the dust that gradually builds up throughout the time and extend the intervals for fan's cleaning and maintenance; this mechanism also helps prolong the product lifetime.
Availability & More Product Information
D.F. STORM fan will be available to cool your heavy-duty rigs in June.

Almost as bad as movie teasers.
spoiler:
The end has a lion.
The APS system is cool though, 3 fans in 1, so you don't have to buy different versions of it if you one day have silent setup, but next month you need best cooling regardless of noise. Nice to see they moved the control out of the frame to external controller. Was a bit annoying flipping the integrated switch with a screwdriver and even that only when fan was stopped (depending on position though).
The reverse spin cleaning cycle isn't all that new, we've seen it on some graphic cards before, but still, a nice addition.
The 120mm fans I use don't even have a 1500rpm maximum fan speed and are already loud at that speed. These must be targeted at enterprise server usage but marketing seems to think it fits with consumer applications.
sounds like no :-/
I've done it like this guy and whole motor assembly was torn from the frame.
The maximimum rpm is 2200/2800/3500, the minimum rpm is 1500.

No removal of the sticker. They always just push it out. In my case, trying to remove rotor from two such fans resulted in whole PCB with motor assembly popping out of the frame.
Shame as they worked well on a reasonably restricted rad
i told you before its different technologie, here is link you can look at 0:15 can notice a wee magnet, sure you can pull out blades without removing a magnet but nobody guarantee you don't broke it and later your fan don't work loud/noisy

Also that "magnet" your referring to @ 0:15 is part of the bearing not a locking mechanism for the blades.
Well, I know, but I still have to ask how it made it into the final video...
This looks like useless gimmick.
that means a pwm range of 1500-3500 rpm +-10% probably
