I would look at the Noctua (<a href="https://noctua.at/" rel="ugc">https://noctua.at/</a>) fans, they are the best cooling, performing fans, and are quiet.<br />
<br />
also Corsair fans are also worth looking at.<br />
<br />
But are these DC or AC fans ?<br />
<br />
Do you also need fans in the cabinet ?

Unless the rack is completely full and you are having tempature issues you usually dont need extra fans in the rack. <br />
Normally you cool the room and the fans in the servers pull the cool air through the server the heated air is pushed out the back of the server by it's internal fans.

Issue is the room is not on its own thermostat so if people are cold and turn up the heat the heat in the server room goes up which is terrible. Figured a few fans might help when that happens.

Yeah, the servers will provide all the airflow needed. Rack servers are designed to be able to run with the rack full of equipment. They will push the hot air out the rear. It varies with the vendor, but equipment should be able to run with the inlet air temperature at 80 F, which is warmer than what most humans would want.

I recently bought this server cabinet for the office. First time using a server cabinet. Wondering if anyone had fans they recommend that would fit this server cabinet. The less noise the better. I just have no idea what kind of fans to get or what brands are good. Any ideas would be great and very helpful!<br />

Fan recommendations for new server cabinet

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.

Server Hardware

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.
