Re: 17'' G4 Flat-Panel 1.25-GHz iMac, OS 10.4

Upgrading my hard drive and Apple-slot memory soon, and thinking of replacing the Super Drive, too, as the current Sony (DW-U10A) is making a lot of extraneous swishing/swacking/clicking noise on disc insert or even just when the computer wakes up. Is that much noise normal for this component? (The Pioneer in my other G4 iMac is MUCH quieter.) Any recommendations for a suitable replacement? I like that the Sony does both DVD+ and DVD-R/RW.

I'm also considering replacing the fan, as I know it's easily accessible when the hard drive is out, and I've read of super-quiet ones that are available (I can only find black, but that's OK). Any recommendations on good, suitable brands or models of really quiet replacement fans?

Thanks.
