Hi,
I am looking to make my PC as quiet as possible.
I currently have an old Dell Pentium 166 running my firewall at home. I have
already replaced the case fan, and put in a hard disk muffler from
www.quietpc.com.
The PSU is however completely non standard, and can't be replaced.
How easy is it to open up the PSU and replace the fan inside that with a
ultra quiet model ?? or are PSUs sealed ? Would it be crazy to have the PSU
outside the case, and just cut the wires to the fan.
There is VERY little drain on the PSU. The hard disk is only used once evey
24 hours, when the logs are turned over. All the Ip filters and NAT sit in
the memory, and no swap space is used. There is no keyboard, mouse or monitor
attached to it, just 2x 10 Mbps NICs. I think I even unplugged the CDROM. I
installed everything via the net.
Will
