One of my cubes has shut down - I happened to be sitting right by it and heard the relay click.  Red light and bottom pwr light are dark, fan twitches but does not spin.  I've swapped in a power supply that has been running two other cubes, and I get the same symtpoms.

I opened it up and checked the board - I see no evidence of overheat.  I shorted the two power relay leads and all the lights come one, but with no fan I'm not inclined to run it for more than a few seconds that way.

Is it possible that the fan is just bad?  I don't have a similar one to swap in tonight.
While preparing to order a fan, does anyone know what RPM the stock fans run at?  I see another post about a 2900 rpm 90mm fan, but I'd rather not have that noise level.  I guess more importantly, does anyone know what RPM the device wants to see?

Other thoughts about what could cause this?

Thanks in advance

If the fuse looks good then could be the fan - still a rare case. I'd estimate its about 1800rpm. Pick yourself up a faster fan and some resistor cables so you find and use the slowest speed it will allow.
