The two installed fans nearest the 5.25-inch drive bays (fans 6 and 7 below) are separated by a
square piece of foam (the piece with a crescent-shaped hole) that extends perpendicularly from the
front of the fans, it is the rectangle between the round faces of fans 6 and 7). You must remove this
piece to access the two fans it separates (pull it straight out).
