About a month ago I purchased a 105 MB Quantum external from APS.  I got very
quick and reliable service from them and am pretty pleased with it.  The only
thing that I don't like about it is that the fan which it has is quite loud.

My questions are:

1) Have other people had the same experience or did I somehow get a bad fan?

2) I have an SE/30 with an internal 40 MB.  How much work is involved in
switching the 105 from the external case and swapping it with the 40 MB one.
Is it as simple as disconnecting a few things, and mounting the the new one on
the bracket?  Are there going to be SCSI identification problems if I do that?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Please reply via email.
Thanks in advance.
