Luckily they've addressed this issue and the fans in the latest products are much quieter. (It probably wouldn't be hard to find a replacement fan that is quieter; somebody on one of the PVR forums has probably already done the research.) =] |
Whatdya know Tom, here is such a thread. =] Also, Here is one fan that is a "direct fit" replacement (only 15mm thick). |
Thanks for the info. I ran across this once before but chickened out because of voiding the warranty. I seem to have bad luck with consumer electronics. Also, I wasn't sure a replacement fan would be any quieter. Eventually I'll have to open the thing up. If it's anything like my computer, it's probably packed full of dust. I thought of upgrading the hard drive as well, but I chickened out on that too. The license agreement said something about voiding the contract if you modified the unit. As far as I could tell the information about disk size was available. So I had bad visions of SonicBlue updating the software to check the model number against the disk size and disabling the system. I guess this will probably never happen, but I didn't want to explain the $250 paperweight to my wife. |
