I have a Toshiba satellite laptop that has become very noisy, I think it's the fan. Are these easy to replace?

I usually tell the owner to start with daily use of canned air (what this is and use is on the web) to the vents daily for a week, then monthly there after. I try to get my laptops and such done on the 1st of the month.

Which model?
