Thanks for the review.

Some of the sound files are incorrectly linked - namely the startup one and the shuttle comparitive one. Also the shuttle comparitive one is incorrectly linked in the NSK2400 review.

is probably the best from the selection they have at overclock but I'd suggest you also look at koolnquiet as Chris suggested. (I just ordered a SS-351HT from them)

I have the 6100 which is pretty nice and only cost £8. It's fairly quiet but I guess it could be quieter. It's quieter than my MS natural internet keyboard but I don't have any other laptop style keyboads that I could compare it to.

Multiple windows / tabs do put higher loads on the server. For the sake of our busy server and the rest of the SPCR community, it would be appreciated if you'd limit the number to a handful rather than the 10 and 20 some people are talking about. How do multiple tabs put higher loads on the server?...

It's not the fan. I've tried two of them and they both had annoying ticking noises. I agree it does sound like a hard drive accessing as Maxamus says.

Your 1st link shows 1A max on 2nd 12V line which is obviously a typo. So I guess that the 5% and 120mV on the tw link are correct vs 10% 50mV (and whatever else is different) on the maxpoint site.

Hmm... whereas the Enermax does look a lot like the Globe fan, Enermax is much powerful & noisy. And it also likes to run at low voltages (say, under 5V). I've understood that the Globe fan won't start below 6V. Cheers, Jan The enermax shown is an M model while the the acousti + globe at the top ar...
