Yes, how viable that is remains to be seen. According to the website, every detail of the fan down to the exact shade of "generic charcoal black #156" it's painted with has been hand-picked and carefully selected to provide the best possible performance.
Also: I just want to distinguish, the only original thing apple did was actually make the case. They took top end components from other independent manufacturers, none of the components were made custom to fit the new shape. The true test is to see how many thousands of dollars you can save if you build a comparable PC yourself

Snot showed me this link earlier: http://datacent.com/hard_drive_sounds.php
I thought it wasn't doing those, but I opened my case and listened, and it is making the first Seagate sound. I disconnected it from the power and motherboard and am going to order another drive, have it put it by the computer place that has been helping me with hardware.
Edit: So this drive? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236407 And what can I do with the current drive besides just have them transfer whatever I put on it. How could I get my money back on it after the transfer?
