Hi All,
I've decided to pivot my upcoming build from a single 4u to a drive shelf + main server. Since I use only SSDs in my main server for VMs, I think I may go the 2u route but am concerned about noise levels. This server will be running in the back of a tandem garage on the ground floor of a townhouse, so whisper quiet isn't required. However, I would like the server to not be heard outside the closed garage door or be overtly loud for when I passing through. Currently I'm looking at the SC825 - can anyone speak first hand on the noise levels of this chassis?
