This monstrosity is what happens when I decide thatdang it, that server has pierced my ears enough with its whiny power supply fan.
Repeat after me: This is not a good idea, really. Modifying power supplies is a questionable activity.
Still with me? This allows the adventurer to bolt on a 60mm fan to where a 40mm used to be. You'll need to print the 40mm flange plus either the straight or twisted 60mm flange. Both versions will sit flat on a table when mounted, but neither fit in the 1U form factor (it projects above). Feel free to add more twist if you really want a 1U form factor, but really, at that point a fan on a hose probably makes more sense. For me, it's fine because I intend to leave a half unit between stuff in the rack for wires anyway.
The design splits apart to allow installation (the 60mm fan probably won't fit through the power supply opening).
It's likely removing the original fan will leave a big gap. Probably should seal that up to not waste your airflow. I used packing tape.
