[rescue] Poweredge 2650 fans?

[Erie Patsellis]

Aaron,
I have a similar situation with my Proliant 6400R, I've purchased two 
rear fans on ebay, both advertised as good, both of them had a single 
fan (of the redundant pair) fail, one of these days I need to swap some 
around, but annoying to say the least at the then price of $85 each.
