Yup Unity, you are quite right, looking at the back there is definitely something under the FCC label. The one on top looks a 'newer' colour. So it looks like I've got an SE upgraded to a SE/30. Anything I ought to be looking out for with regards to issues/problems with this? - It seems to be...

Interesting....are the so called "silent" box fans significantly quieter, in your opinion, to go to the effort to replace?

Great, thanks for the advice... maybe I'll stick with it. I was under the impression that these were replaced for better, albeit louder fans, which I guess is why I've heard people replacing them with modern "silent" fans.. but if this one is doing the best job, and newer fans aren't that...

Actually, just did a google search, and I see what you mean about the vertical and horizontal video boards on the back of the CRT... I'd have to check the measurements again to see if a standard box fan will fit in my SE30 without the need to replace the video board as well!!

Hey oldappleguy, I'm not sure I need to replace a whole board... from what I can tell I just need a 90 degree mount for the new "silent" fan, which I'm guessing is in the usual SE30s. I THINK it should fit in behind the crt video board. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you are saying?

Ahh interesting, I was under the impression that these had been phased out before the SE30... and that new, silent, fans were the thing to replace the SE30's fan with. You think I might be better off sticking with the squirrel fan then!?

Hi there, I have just got myself a great condition SE30 to rekindle the good old days when I was a kid and had one brought home from my Dad's work every weekend! I have just recapped the logic board and replaced the battery etc, to try and keep top notch! I'm currently waiting for a SCIS2SD...
