Weird - the machine seems rather quiet to me, but it's in a separate room with the laser printers and no one actually working there. I don't know how to measure noise, unfortunately. I have another Gen8 at my wife's office for their not-for-profit organisation. Quiet as a mouse with FreeNAS 11. This time two also very quiet (most of the time) computer based office desks in that room.

Or are you referring to the *HDD* temperature? I never put disks to sleep in servers ... Patrick
