Nah, I meant the "standard" sunon fan. Even Sun claims they fail, and

I'm going to find a general component catalog and find me a suitable
replacement.
I have the same problem, BTW. Someone mentioned odd noises coming from my
machine.

The standard Sunon fans don't have any bearings so it's possible
that the noise implies yours may be failing. You might want to keep
a close eye on it because when my RaQ overheated, it trashed
my file system. This CPU temp monitoring script will email you at
whatever temp you specify: http://scripts.akakul.co.uk/cpu_temp
My colo provider researched replacement fans for the Sunon
and couldn't find anything reasonably priced (nor with bearings)
which is why we opted for the add-on slot fan.
