wrapping them in Al might work in other situations, but that would be a BIGBIGBIGBIG nono for me-- my equipment would be picking up radio stations in Tijuana if I did that and I'm not too into recording an acoustic guitar track with Banda in the background.
The hard drives are quiet as hell. I have them in silentdrives, remember? The loudest thing right now is the PSU, but the sound of the monitor is also audible (i turn that off when tracking). I have tried switching out fans, but the one that came with it is the quietest one of them all. To tell you the truth, I don't trust the rheo. I know that at some point I would probably leave the fan turned way down and forget to bring it back up, and I don't want to see what happens to a hot PSU over time.
I really want to find a way to remote the PSU.
