1RU systems have small diameter fans which have to spin at high speeds to get enough air flow which is always going to make more noise than the larger fans in 2RU servers or tower systems. If you are going to run a server where noise matters get a tower server. If it has SSDs and isn't going CPU intensive things then it will be very quiet. As for the Sun servers I'm offering. They are old and somewhat slow by today's standards. If they can work for someone as they currently are then that's great. If they need to have anything done with them then it's probably not worth it. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list luv-main@luv.asn.au http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
