It wont hurt anything for me to remove the tiny little fan from my powerconnect 2724 will it?
Im using it at home and only using 8-9ports with maybe 3-4 being used at any one time for games and the odd download (virgin 150mbit)

The 16port (2716) is fanless see top pic below, the bottom pic is mine.

You could also replace the fan with something quieter. I've recently put Scythe Mini Kaze Ultra SY124020L 40x40x20mm fans in my fibre channel switch and it's gone from being the noisiest thing in the rack to the quietest :)
