DL320 is LOUD!

Anyone else have the issue of the HP DL320 being extremely loud? This sucks...

What was the question you want to have answered?  The server is loud because it's a 1U height and the fans, which are small, have to spin faster to move enough air to cool it.  To quiet it down, you would need some external source of airflow that used larger, slower spinning fans.

I have several 1U servers that are no where near this loud. You seriously can hear this server across the office, down the hall. Do a google search on "DL320 loud", several people have complained about this issue. There are several fixes for other servers that had this issue, but i can't find one or this one.
