Hello rescuers,
For a couple of years, my main machine at home has been an
Ultra-60, the parts for which several list members generously
contributed.
However, I've become more aware of the noise this beast
generates. For a full day of work, it's a bit exhausting.
Do any rescuers have any suggestions on how to quieten it?
So far, I can only think of replacing the fans with thermally-
controlled ones. I'm assuming they're responsible for most
of the noise. The disk noise is audible, but less of a worry.
Any other clever/relatively inexpensive ideas?
Since I work on the (X) console, putting the thing in another
room isn't really a solution...
