Here's an anecdote of accidentially 'introducing' my SM box to a friend:
My buddy came over the first day I had the box temporarily powered up in my living room.. Messing around with IPMI and BIOS settings.
I live on the 4th floor.
Upon entering the 'grand door' to the staircase, he immediately identified "oh - someone is vacuuming".. Once he arrived at the 3th floor, he'd said he was like "oh - this has to be the appartment that is vaccuming"... only to realize it was coming from the floor above.......
His jaw dropped quite a bit when I <opened> my door and he heard the ..NOISE LEVEL in my appartment. :P :P
This definitely is no exaggeration of the event that happened.
Needless to say, none of us had much experience with true server gear before.
He'd probably never ever consider getting a server box to put in an appartment x)
(I've not given up yet, I'm considering to make a real effort to deadening/isolating sound before deciding if that SM 36bay box has any business being remotely close to a habited area of mine)
