Pros & Cons
Pros
The seller is super attentive and knowledgeable. Shipping to poland is pricey, but arrived without any problems. Worth it to get it than none on my 25 year old ps2 phat.
Fan assembly replaces the original backplate perfectly. Took about a half hour to install, including cleaning the dust out.
The part fits well and didn't make the case warp. This hardware change to the chassis is really cool. Shoutouts to noctua's fans and tpo's bracket design.
The fan is super quiet even with a hdd running. My ps2 scph-39001 is now freakishly quiet. It's because you need a ethernet adapter installed in order for it to get enough power.
Works extremely well, super silent, fits like a glove. Difference in fan noise is shocking. This is my second item from the peaceful outcome - my first was their similar quiet fan upgrade for the original xbox.
Cons
V fan and a zener diode and resistor or regulator board could be made for $0. Its definitely an inconvenience and unnecessary extra spending. The print quality of the bracket here is not good.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to install easy to use and instructions are easy to attain
The fan assembly replaces the original backplate perfectly and thanks to the provided guide the entire procedure is easy to perform
Most are made cheaply and it doesnt work
Its an enormous upgrade over the stock fan the ps2 is barely audible at 10ft distance
Price
A very good mod for ps2 unfortunately just very expensive if you dont live in the us and have to import the item to europe
Shipping
Fast shipping and items are as expected
Seller responded quickly and offered to replace item or the harness
Shipping to poland is pricey but arrived without any problems
Packaging/appearance
Noctua company color looks cool but these black noctua fans make the ps2 look flush and matching
Love it im glad i got the black colored fan instead of the one in the picture because it makes it look stock
Competitiveness
All others besides the ebay store from the same seller are fakes or garbage
I wasnt expecting much of a difference considering my ps2 also has an ide hard drive

Neither the fan itself nor the assembly produce any form of audible vibration or humming

No audible blowing sound anymore

But i think in order to make it easier to install the thin part of the cable should be a little longer and the other part shorter
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I had problems because the cable connector would touch the fan and it would not spin
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
However as the title states there is a slight bulge that is formed where the multioutput cable plugs in
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Probably since the new frame for the fan is 3d printed
