One of my favorite vibration noise reduction techniques is to use rubber coating. You can get the stuff that sprays from a can on anything you can use spraypaint on or you can buy the rubber coating dip to dip parts in. It rocks.

I used that stuff to reduce the vibration noise of my fan and my aluminum pump. Just applied a few coats to the bottom of the res/pump. I applied rubber coat on the side of my 120mm fan that touches the rubber gasket on the chassis.

You might want to try it. It only costs a few bucks at the hardware store. I forgot the name of the product, but it came in a yellow can and was next to the sealing stuff for roofs, tiles, tubs, sinks, etc.
