    Anyone know what the part number to the cooling fan (DC Fan?) is on an s360p? I have had mine replaced by Sony after complaining about how loud it is, but still do not have anything quieter... Does anyone know of where I can buy a better (quieter) one online? I love the laptop, but this fan issue is very annoying.

    I have been looking online for sometime now and can't seem to figure it out... BTW, Sony said they would not release their part numbers???

    You may want to check the ASUS forum for the posts on M5 and A2D and speedfan.
    These guys have had similar issues with a loud fan but instead of trying to get a replacement they have managed to partly solve the issue by changing the way the fan comes on and how fast the fan spins with speedfan.
    It maybe worth alook.
