He's deaf, Jim. (Or the P180 does an awesome job quieting this thing down.)

Welcome to 190 cubic feet of wholesome goodness. It sure "feels" like it too. The FFB1212EHE has "Server Use Only" written all over it. If you do decide to strap this jet engine in a desktop PC, be sure to apply a second sheet of Dynomat to save your ears.

Ok, a bit of an exaggeration. Still, there are a few things that can be said about this fan. It *IS* incredibly loud. Think Bissell upright vacuum cleaner. Well, not quite, but not too far off.

I would suggest taking the plastic fan grille off the case, as it impedes the airflow by quite a bit. You'll also want to leave the door open.
