Probably quieter than the DL360 I bought a few months ago and put on eBay after two hours :)

Oh, is that the one with like 10 1" fans spinning at 8,000 RPM, so that it sounds like a Harrier jet coming in for a landing?

> 8,000 RPM

Usually it's way, way more: https://store.supermicro.com/server-accessories/fans.html?fa...

Haha, the good old DL360. That fan noise was loud. Let alone the spinning, whining 15k SCSI disks..

Oh god, flashbacks to an early 2000s machine room absolutely full of the bastards.

Thankfully, all entrance doors had an earplug dispenser...
