I know from hdd construction (and from personal experience swapping a 40gb fujitsu in and out of caddies) that the main areas of that develop heat ar...

172mm fan.....One hundred and Seventy two millimeters?!?!?!?!?!?

You shouldnt need a fan that big. If it was a 72mm i could see the point.
Whatever, it would be almost impossible to transfer the bearings due to differences in size and design life. It would be cheaper to get a new fan.

i have had some experience with stuff made by Deer, not in PSUs but in cases branded as Kobian/Mercury. Thin material, lots of sharp edges, but not as bad as JNC.

Tip Magnetic Driving Fan II: An intriguing design

I have a TMD II fan on my Vantec, the fan is very load. The fan is also very sensitive to the level of the floor, if it isnt flat the fan will unbalance itself and make more noise. Differences in the torque of the holding crews also effect it, as so the fact that the coils are arround the screw hole...
