So that replacement is 6CFM. Any idea on what the stock one is? It's
probably not that much, but I'm not sure about that.

I guess since people have proven that you don't even really need a
fan, anything you put on there would probably be fine. Although I do
know that these newer hard drives crank out the heat, and my opinion
is that a fan is needed with a newer hard drive. And hopefully the
power supply can keep up.
