Almost every fan manufacturer has their own label for FDB (Fluid Dynamic Bearing) fans. Noctua calls their own SSO and SSO2, but it's still a fluid bearing at its core. FDB bearings are the best for longevity, sleeves are the worst. Ball bearings are in the middle, but tend to be the loudest of the three. I have 13 year old Noctua FDB fans in my case, run 24/7 and still quiet as ever.
Have water, will cool.
