    rofl again, that whirling will prolly be under 20db (with adequete vibrtion absorbtion)

    at which point u dont need to worry: 20db is the average ambient room noise

    not on an old Quantum fireball HD, it certainly isn&#39;t under 20dBA
    on startup it spins like a bastard and is quite noisy

    d00d read the full post&#33;

    Sorry my bad&#33;
    think I&#39;ll try the rubber feet and set it on the bottom of my case and se if it changes any [/b][/quote]
    rofl OK&#33;

    lets hope it works cuz i wanna try that too

    I&#39;ll stop into the hardware store on my way home from work and pick up a few rubber stoppers and some split loom for my cables too B)
    might have a look for some foam sheets too....

    you gotta be kiddin me
    I&#39;m not buying a whole new case when chances are I can find a cheaper, more efficient way to silence it anyway&#33;
    If I win the lottery though, I&#39;ll consider it

    heres a more expensive method (but likely to silence ur entire case)

    get one of those noise cancellation units from BOSE, and remove the headfones and instead add a speaker (like one of those gay monitor-mount speakers that only has 1 cable and thats for the sound). the unit should have a microfone either built in or attached via cable. the unit is battery operated i believe so ull need to switch the batteries or plug the DC power adapter into the wall. may be a hassle but it works.

    have you read his post from a month ago? somehow (proven to work) when you have double the amount of sound, it cancles out itself...

    so if you have these headphones on, and there are microphones on the sides, then when the sound comes in, it gets doubled up through your ears, then just cancles out and becomes silent its really wierd, and hard to explain, maybe atividia will link to his topic...
