Aah!  I was unaware of this distinction.

In that case, I probably will wind up getting some from raqware.

May go with one of the "alternatives" in addition to that. The slot fan was nice, I just need to peek under the hood and see if I actually have a usable chassis slot there.

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

gave (sun) part numbers and brands for what they were
replacing them with,

much.  Basically
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.

You people are talking about pre 2004 Suinon fans that had low life
expectancy.
The new Sunon fans are using magnetic levitation technology and appear
to be long lasting.
Buy fans that have the MS postscript.
The biggest problem is that many vendors are selling OLD fans.
BTW we sell new fans, all have MS (magnetic levitation)
