My Christmas gift to myself: Disabling the 5.5″ bay fan in the front of my computer’s case. I already have a 120mm fan in front of the hard drives, a 120mm and two 80mm fans in the back, and whatever fans Antec put in my power supply, so I’m covered on airflow. And as it turns out, the bay fan was louder than all the rest of them put together.

Though the downside is that the next time I’m upgrading, I’ll have to find something to put in that 5.5″ bay. I don’t have a clue what I did with the cover that came with the case.
