NIDEC Fan where do i plug it in?!?!
Hey, im setting up my Vcore3, and ordered this part colling fan:
4028 Axial - NIDEC W40S12BS2E5-57T04HF9 (12V 1.61A 25000RPM)
But where the heck do i plug that in? The diagram in the instructions shows i should plug it on my Octopus which has a completely different connector. The Fan has 4 Wires, while the connector has 2 wires.
The wiring kit I got did not have wires for supplying power to everything. Is that normal?

That is normal. https://os.ratrig.com/docs/guides/4028
Connecting a 4028 fan | RatOS
4028 server fans are becoming a popular option for part cooling because of their light weight and great pressure and flow rates. In this guide we'll go over how to connect one and use it for part cooling. 4-pin fans usually aren't used in 3d printers, and many boards only provide 2-pin ports, but fear not! There's always a way.

Well, this is of course not normal for default kit, but expected as of today

I used JST SM connector to extend cable, a bit bulky but works
