There's no mention of the bearing type.. so I guess it's safe to assume that
they're sleeve bearing.
It would be a good deal if they're ball bearing fans.

linky seems to be not working. going to 80x25mm fans on svc.com seems to be broken too. i have a several 80x25mm svc branded fans. there not super quiet, but they're pretty decent.

While no one would argue that ball bearing last longer, Sleeve bearing is quieter and typically lasts a goodly amount of time. At the rate most people change out hardware here 1.50 for a sleeve bearing fan is cheap and should probably be done with each case updgrade. I personally have made sleeve bearing fans into led fans myself and have been using them over a year with no problem yet. beats the friggin 3.50 everyone wants for panaflo's. :D

Who has panaflo's for $3.50? Linky?

This fan is one ball bearing and sleeve. It's pretty quiet. No bearing noise at all. At 7V its completely silent and still has pretty good air flow.
