In 15 years of being a computer engineer, and changing MANY failed fans, the
results for Papst are as follows:-

Papst fan failures = 2 - both with open circuit windings (240VAC).  
Bearing failures = 0. Speaks for itself really! Guess which make of fan I 
use in my P.C.! They're pricey, but you get what you pay for!
