My friend has an original Mac II that he is soon going to
be upgrading to a IIfx.  The power supply doesn't get any
upgrade and his original fan (built in to the power supply)
is very virulent and noisy!

I suggested to him that we could purchase one of the Quiet
SE fans and replace it.  Alternatively, I seem to remember
something about adding in a resistor.

Does anyone know the preferred solution to a noisy Mac II fan?
