In the morning when I wake my iMac up, a fan starts up in it (which I totally expect). But the quality of the noise is what concerns me. It's not simply a whooshy or whirry noise, there is a brittle plastic component to it as well, as if just the very tip of a fan blade were rubbing up against something. It's only very mildly annoying, and stops after the first couple minutes of operation.
But my concern is whether this may, in the long run, lead to premature failure of the fan and subsequently shorten the lifespan of a machine I am otherwise truly in love with (there, I said it.)
Can anybody say anything about this? Any similar experiences?
Thanks -
