If you have an available 5.25" bay, install an Akasa Fan Control Pro, or the Super Flower Fan Master, which is exactly the same except for the brand on the outside. In the U.S., they can be had for about $35. Here is one place: http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/sufanmasf.html
These two are the best fan controllers I have looked at by far. There was another brand that had more fan controllers and temperature sensors, but the way it worked was screwy.

Good luck.

Another quick note, if you buy the item from the URL I listed, be careful because the manual doesn't show you which way to put the temperature sensors, nor does anything else in the package. Just to let you know!
