make sure it's got nice clean outputs; you could end up introducing ripple and other noise into your system supplies by connecting a card intended just to drive a fan. Also, if the Digium card is wired such that the +5 on PCI and the +5 on the power connector (for example) are wired together, then you could potentially have problems because the two power supplies could try to drive slightly different voltages onto the supply bus and end up toasting something.
