Has anyone look into this particular SFF. I can't seem to find a retailer who carries it. Here's a review on Toms Hardware:

Ajump.com carries the barebones. Please buy one and report here on what it "sounds" like! (I'm waiting for somebody else to be the guinea pig, hee-hee.)

Peep before the review: It's not successful acoustically. ie, it's loud.

Not sure if they had a change of heart.

"The Trigem Kloss KL-I915A Is All-around Silent" from Tomshardware. It's part of their new SFF lineup. http://www.tomshardware.com/howto/20050 ... cs-19.html.

They rated it at 37db(a).

I have the KlossPC.

It is not all that silent. Something in my setup is making a strange, higher-pitched whine. I have not been able to locate it, but the cpu-cooler for example is very silent, and my leadtek 6600GT does not make very much noise with the fan running 50% either.

My best guesses is the 40mm fan in the PSU or perhaps the HD (Maxtor Diamondmax 9 SATA with AAM activated)

I have now exchanged the horrible superred 40mm ball bearing fan in my PSU for an hypobearing ADDA 40mm. It made a little difference, but the annoying noise is still there. I believe that it is my Diamonmax 9 SATA that's making the noise.

Anyone had these disks and know what type of noise it makes? Since AAM was activated, it is silent during seeks, but something is still making a strange high-pitched metallic grinding noise.
