Scream at 57 decibels – not quite as loud as yo momma, but close.Move up to 150 cubic feet of air per minute.The stock fans are Nidec BetaV TA350DC 92mm fans that: I can’t run cables inside the walls since it’s a rented condo, and I can’t run cables along the floor because I’ve got a girlfriend with a keen sense of design. This wasn’t a problem when I had the server in the basement, but now that I’ve moved to Chicago and my “datacenter” is my home office closet, it’s a problem. I couldn’t carry on a conversation next to this server, let alone record a podcast.

They’re temperature-controlled, so they don’t go full blast unless the server’s working hard, but even at very light loads they’re just way too loud. It’s got 6 92mm fans that can wake the dead. Seriously, the case is bulletproof and gawdawful heavy.īut it’s loud. Two quad-core CPUs, 16gb of memory, six SATA drives in a RAID 10, and about a hundred pounds of solid steel. Quest got me a Dell PowerEdge 1900 to use as a virtualization host, and it’s been great.

I’ve blogged about how to build a silent PC, but today I’m tackling another noisy beast – an off-the-rack server. I like running my lab out of my office closet, but I don’t want to hear any of them running.
Is there firmware for this type of RAM please as I cannot find it on the Dell website.I’ve got a few servers in my home lab and I’ve always taken steps to make sure they’re quiet. Had the temporary opportunity to swap the MT36HTF1G72FZ-667C1D4 with another brand and the fans spun down to 3.5k rpm. Whilst all cores, ram and chassis ambient temperature are optimal, the fans are still spinning fast an average of 8090 RPM and seems like the BMC is not optimizing fan control.Īfter much research I have come to notice that most probably the BMC is spinning the cooling fans at a much higher rate as it is not recongnising the brand of the RAM installed Micron MT36HTF1G72FZ-667C1D4. I use ipmitool and lm-sensors to get the sudo ipmitool sensor | grep Temp On this server fans are controlled by the BMC I would like to lower the fan speed of what I consider an optimized in terms of efficiency Dell PowerEdge 1950 Gen II having two quad core Xeon E5335 cpus and 32GB (4x8GB) of RAM running Ubuntu 16.04 lts.
