eMac 1.25Ghz Fan

Hi, I would like to replace the fan in the back of my eMac with a Vantec Stealth for quietness.

I was wondering what size the fan is in the back of the eMac (I have taken it apart to replace the HDD before, but forgot to check) and how much air it pushes (CFM)?

Cheers.

I've heard of people wanting to do this and not being successful. I'm pretty sure Apple is using a proprietary fan in the eMac. I would say its a 5-6 inch fan.

The fan itself looks like a standard 120mm fan, but with Apple's own fan case (if you see what I mean). There are reports of people just changing the actual blade unit, keeping the original fan case.
