Hi Don,
   That fan really whines doesn't it. What I did was to remove
the cover, cut the fan wire and install a resistor (I don't
remember the value) to cut down the speed. Then I wired a mini
toggle switch across the resistor and mounted it with double
stick tape to the top of the heat sink. I can now run the fan at
slow speed or full speed as required and the mod is easily
removed if you so desire at a later date. You could also wire it
so that you could cut it off as well as have the two speeds.
