Private athena workstation in 9-250, making loud humming/whining
noise. It's been doing it for a few months, shifting the monitor
sometimes makes it go away, but it's getting worse. I think it's a
fan, but could you have a look (office is usually open from 9 to 5,
otherwise people nearby can let you in)?
Hmm, actually, I guess if it's a fan that's potentially worse
than if it's the hard drive since failure could overheat and damage
the system.
Thanks,
Craig
