Hi<br />
We have been trying to install PCI USB3 cards and USB3 drives in &nbsp;2 new HP Gen8 servers , ML350 and DL360. They seem to work but make the server fans go wild.<br />
<br />
Does anyone have any similar experience or advice.<br />
We have tried HP and non HP cards

HP Servers and USB3 cards are noisy

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
