Hello mcree The sound level is actually extremely good on the StealthServer with the hot swap SATA drives. Especially when using the Samsung spinpoint drives. And our P4 model now has genuine PCI-X 64-Bit 66MHz slots which enable the SATA RAID controller to deliver the full performance of the disk s...

If you purchase an ARM PC with no OS and no Video Card, do they still run the box through a "burn-in" phase or any other testing? Glad you asked ChrisM , Yes indeed, every single machine we produce gets a burn-in and a QA/QC process. And, all of our StealthPC's receive a special extended burn-in wh...

Re: Dell XPS unbelievably noisy
I spent about 4 hours setting this system up for a client and had to send it back. At idle, the fan noise was significantly noticable in a home office environment (sitting on the floor immediately beside the desk). Once you started using it, the fans kick into high gear and the noise became ridicul...

Hey guys, I do like the look of this new EC, however, if you are building a higher end system, this chassis does not have some of the airflow characteristics of the 4252. 1.)
