I'm replacing my Compaq 2500s with 530s or 570s. I just got my first 530 installed with NT4 Server - and it's a mighty noisy sucker (I mean even after the initial decrease in volume after startup, when it sounds like a hurricane at first).
This server sounds like a darn vacuum cleaner, pretty much.
OTOH, my old 2500s are virtually silent, like desktops. Anyone been through this, is there something wrong with my 530, or is there a way to adjust the fan unit volume, maybe? Anyone else use a 500-series Compaq, know anything about this?
