Restoring my SE to SE/30 conversion with a noisy fan

[reallyrandy]

I'm restoring my SE/30 that was an SE conversion and the fan is super noisy. I pulled a quiet fan out of an SE parts machine but I discovered that the noisy fan has wires and the other one has 2 terminals sticking out the back. It looks like the analog board has a place to solder in a fan with terminals though. Could it be as simple as just soldering in the new fan and leaving the original wires clipped?

This sounds awesome — I don’t know the answer to your questions. But if you’re confident the replacement fan is of similar power requirements then why not just touch the existing yellow/black wires from the board onto the connectors of the replacement fan and see what happens?
