I notice they seem to have fans. How much noise do they make?
Lots. HP does not seem to take acoustic noise level in to consideration in its designs.
I have an old HP5245L. The fan is quite noisy. When I upgraded to the more modern HP5345A counter I was disappointed to find that its fan is even louder. The HP5335A also has a rather noticeable fan.
But they are not all bad. If I recall correctly the HP5334A does not have a fan and some of the other small HP models do not. But if noise is a consideration, you need to check the specific model to be sure.
I have several pieces of HP (and other brands) of test equipment. A lot of it only gets turned on when I actually want to use it. It is just too noisy to leave on otherwise.
