Coolermaster Aero 7 or 7+

Was considering getting one of these. They are both available here for the same price (about US$46).

I was wondering which one is a better choice.

Thanks.

From CoolerMaster's site:

To HK Aero 7 owner only: due to the design problem, our previous Aero 7 fan will potentially be damaged after certain amount of usage. We have noticed the problem and released the improved Aero 7+ to replace Aero 7. To be safe and this is a recall notice, we advise you to take your Aero 7 to our office before July 15th to exchange with Aero 7+. Should you have any inquiry please feel free to contact us.

Thanks. That was very timely and important advice. Maybe I will wait for the Aero 7+ to age a bit. After the Xdream SE problem.... seems prudent.

Looks like they've replaced the sleeve bearings and thrust washers with ball bearings instead. From examining an old style Aero, I noticed that the washers don't seem like they'd be the greatest thing.
