Power supply fan noisy by
j walker
The fan on the power supply of my 500 MX is failing.
Since I have never done anything like this before I thought it might
be good to ask for advice on how to:
get the fan off the power supply and out of the cabinet
a source for a replacement.
anything special I should be aware of.
