The IBM AS/400 9401 Model P03 is a comparatively tiny model. It's still a CISC processor machine, despite having a black case.

There's not much physical space to lessen its noise emissions by applying dampening pads to the case, or stuffing with noise absorbing material. A little relief can be achieved by disassembling it completely to extract the PSU. You need to drill out the rivets and search for some matching screws in your collection. The fan can be made a bit less noisy with a 27 Ω resistor put in series. Don't expect wonders, though.
Note! 33 Ω or higher values trigger some fan observing circuitry on the PSU board. If it triggers, you'll get the amber LED on front and a SRC 00000003 in the display, after the PSU shut down. This happens within the first few seconds of power on.
