Default Noisy PCI expansion chassis - upgrade with quiet fans?

I am wondering if anyone has successfully upgraded the fans in a digi(magma) 13 slot pci chassis to a newer "silent" fan and gotten quieter operation. If so, what brand/model of fans worked best? Also on that subject, has anyone done any worthwhile fan upgrades on g4's or any other macs to reduce the noise they make?

I'm doing a little acoustic modification(tighter door seals, plexiglass windows) to hopefully seal off my rack a little better, but still thinking that might not be enough. We'll find out when I get everything back together...
