Here's a dumb little question that I'm not sure of the answer.  Which
direction should the fan be blowing: into the power supply or out of it?
My computer came configured with the fan blowing in (presumably to keep
the stuff in the power supply cool), but I noticed the cards become quite
warm and one of the hard drives starts sounding like a car going 40mph in
first gear if I leave the computer on for more than 12 hours.  Otherwise
it seems to be fine and the hard drive is fairly quiet.  Any takers?
