I have a mixture of noctua and 'be quiet' fans in my blade 2500, keeps it
plenty cool while endlessly compiling infinities for a broken gentoo
install. The difference in noise was absolutely shocking, I wish I'd have
measured, but it's near silent now at idle. I have grand plans to do the
same to a blade 2k, but I'm not overly optimistic given its more hardcore
architecture.
A while back I had a speed sensor issue with a fan replacement, it turns
out you can feed fake timing data with a 555 timer circuit. That said, in
that application I didn't care about cooling as much, and IIRC I ended up
just ignoring the fan failure light.
