    Silent server? Does such exist!?

    Parts that make a server make noise are: fans and high rpm scsi drives. So it might be a sollution to use a Dell machine and (have it) changed to watercooling and select lower rpm disks. But it will introduce some extra costs. Isn't there an option to put the server in a seperate room? Then...
