Changed fan in ARMX6 PSU due to high noise on switch on which

fan with what I thought was a close alternative (ball bearing type)
but gives permanent high noise including a high-frequency whistle.
It was so bad that I substituted the original.
My feeling is that even if the fan is running poorly then because
the motherboard/CDROM/USB hubs take relatively little power I'm
unlikely to get overheat issues so I'll live with it.

I replaced the power supply in my ARMX6 not long after purchase with
one of these[1]:

I don't think the fan has ever come on, and with an SSD, the machine
is totally silent.
[1] At the time it wasn't v2.0, was cheaper to purchase elsewhere,
although no longer available from that source.
