My left fan has something wrong and makes a pretty loud rattling sound that gets louder as the RPMs increase.
I'm looking around on ebay and other private sellers and the cheapest new fan is $40. On ebay there are several used fans listed for $18. I don't know much about the typical durability of fans and was wondering if it is safe to get a used fan or if, like a hard drive, it's too much of a risk and It would be worth doubling the price for the new one.
TIA.
