Thank you for this video Philip. I just bought one of these second-hand to run my security camera system and the fan was a little noisy (it's got 1933 days 20 hours on the m.2 SSD according to Hard Disk Sentinel so it's been used). I undid the three tabs and one tiny screw to take the metal side of the fan off, lifted the rotor off the shaft. I then wiped the inside of the magnets and spindle plus stator with an IPA-soaked cotton bud, let it all dry then just touched the spindle with a cotton bud with a drop of sewing machine oil on it. All back together now and silent. Cheers.
Did you remove the little rubber thing? That is an important step, with that still in place nothing moved for me, with the rubber removed the board just fell out.
