An internal fan replacement requires complete disassembly. Replacing the fan is an overlooked solution to the PS4 noise problem. This is the only thing that permanently solved my problem.
Replacing noisy fans. My old eyes were helped by using a lighted magnifier when working with the small electrical plugs.
At least 1/3 of the heatsink fins were completely clogged with dust. I blew all of the dust out before installing the new fan.
Ready to remove left fan. I felt some resistance when trying to remove the fan and saw a black wire, by my finger, looped over the fan assembly. Had I not been moving slow I may have caused some damage by yanking on the wire.
Some shots of the inside of my SVT-HD taken while I was upgrading the fan. Nice green fringing on the white text, huh? Shot with a Sigma 50mm f/1.4 NOT (as I had mistakenly said on a forum) a Sigma 150mm f/2.8 Macro. I was forgot that I'd switched off to the 50mm for a couple of shots and was perplexed by the green fringing from my beloved Sigma 150mm. There was a good reason I seldom see this. ;-)
I've always been annoyed by my SVT because the fan was so loud. Sounds like a jet airplane idling when you turn it on. Which is fine when you're playing, but when I was recording stuff for my movie I just used a direct box because the SVT whooshing away in the background annoyed me a lot, but I didn't want to keep turning it off and then having to rewarm the tubes again. I found an online schematic for the amp and the fan they use is a simple 120mm AC powered (who uses AC powered fans?) fan that moves 65 CFM of air. It's rated at 65 decibels. That's really loud. No wonder it's so annoying.
I found an Orion fan that puts out 75 CFM that's rated at 24 decibels. I found one for $15 at Mouser Electronics and ordered it. It came today and I just opened the case up to replace the old one. Anyway, the short version is that the new fan has more blades, seems to move more air and is WAY quieter than the old one, but I don't think it's 24 db quiet. Companies exaggerate the specs so bad. Still, it's a huge improvement. Goofy little tweak, but it made a nice difference.
Used over original black tape between fan assembly and heatsink. This tape is grips better than scotch tape.
I found that the original black tape sealing the joint between the fan assembly and heatsink didn't stick well when reassembling. I cut a piece of packing tape to make an air tight seal.

In this photo you can see the new fan attached to the rear grill and the old fan sitting next to it. Look at how the two top corners of the OEM fan are broken off. WTF?
