Quieting a Mirrored Drive Door Power Mac G4
Apple issued an official noise fix for the MDD CPUs a long time ago. About a year or so after the machine was released, so many owners were griping about the noise that Apple set up a parts swap program. They shipped a replacement power supply (with quieter fans) and a replacement CPU cooling fan, all for the amazing cost of $25 shipping. You could install the kit yourself or take it to an Apple servicing dealer and they'd put it in for free. I installed it myself in my MDD and it was immediately quieter.

Yes I was told by the previous owner of my MDD Powermac ( a graphic design firm) that they did this apple fan swap & that it had made a big difference. I hate to think how loud it was beforehand. I was seriously thinking of selling it, but now it's whisper quiet so I think I'll keep it for a couple more years. |
