[dba-Tech] Rack server, quiet?

Hi Jim

Exactly. 
All pizza servers I've experienced have been equipped with half a dozen tiny fans running at full thrust spreading a noise like a vacuum cleaner.
2U and 3U units haven't been much better.

Fujitsu manufactures some small extremely quiet servers, though not for rack mounting.

You looking for something that doesn't sound like a jet airplane? ;-)

Hi all

Does anyone know of a server model for 19" rack mount that doesn't come with
a noise level of an A/C system?
It should be quiet as a modern desktop machine.
