Data center racks use outside air to keep the servers cool. It would be real cool to have a self cooling data rack with built in silence material to the point where you can't hear anything, even from standing right next to it. Unfortunately this rack could be built and made, but would cost a ton of money.

I woke up at 2am one morning, walked into my office and just yanked the power cord to my SP10. Just not designed for home use. Those are high-end enterprise fans in those rigs and good quality power supplies too. No matter where you put one of those miners, you'll always hear that whining noise the fans make, and it will slowly make you go crazy.

That's why I had to sell mine. I didn't want to believe a miner advertised for home (right off the home page) could be that loud. Hey, my mistake. Live and learn. It also reminded me one of those gas blower heaters you put in your garage in the winter. My room temperature went up to 107 degrees while it was 65 degrees outside. Once I saw that I knew I had to sell them because summer is coming and when it hits that 95 degrees everyday, there's no way to keep any of those miners cool in a home, unless you have commercial cooling products installed. Good luck, and lets see some pictures!!!!!

Found some stuff online, but as I do not have prior experience with soundproofing, would like some one to give me a hint, which way to look.

Example 28.5dB(A) sound reduction and 7.2KW heat dissipation - $3657 for 12U space would it be enough to fit 4 SP10? Would it work as advertised?

Info is about: UCoustic 9210 Range of 19" Soundproof Rackmount Cabinets with Thermostatic Cooling

Thanks!

The UCoustic 9210 rack cabinets are amazing. I have two of the 24U active model. I can't hear my SP10.
