noise actually not that bad with some bios configuration tricks - I used to run dell r720 and r420 together with ~20 HDDs near my desk table and most of the day noise was close to some non-silent gaming PC/workstation. Only problem was if is some need to reboot it, in that case it just blow fans to full power and it's loud like vacum cleaner that you for sure don't wanna to use at middle of the night.
