My dell has a proprietary fan assembly that houses a 92mm fan and attaches to the case. It amplified the noise of the fan motor terribly, so I took the fan out and rather than drilling holes to attach the fan by itself I used industrial velcro (blue peel strip) to do it and at the same time dampen the vibration noise.

Fan Holes in case:

Hard side of velcro to the case:

Soft side of velcro to the fan corners and sides (never mind the yellow tape :p) :

The industrial velcro holds the fan extremely well and the adhesive has the gripping power of duct tape:

Ghetto, but nice idea. Easy to remove when need be and ya you won't get to much vibration from that either.
