Fan mounting using 3M tape

[foo9883]

I want to install some fans behind the HDD rack for more cooling to my GPU. However there's no fan mounts there and I don't have the proper equipment to drill fan mounts behind the HDD rack. Besides I think its too much work for my liking lol.

I was wondering whether I could buy those very sticky 3M tape and just stick the fans behind the HDD rack. Do you think the tape will withstand fan vibration and not fall off from the HDD rack?

Use cable tie neater and tighter.

What if there is no holes available to secure the fans with cable ties?

The use of cable tie may not need holes.

Worst case will be to use either a long cable tie or multiple cable ties to wrap around the whole thing.
