Dear Shuttle,
When I spend over £200 on your high end SFF PCs, I expect them to be quiet. I do not expect to have to order a £12 fan from somewhere such as QuietPC.com to make it silent.
Kind regards,
William Hook.
This includes the many other noisy components I’ve ever had, including the incredibly noisy PSU I had in my old PC, which was a Coolermaster model. How hard can it be to put quiet fans in your damn products?! Oh, and I didn’t actually send the above message to Shuttle, but I feel tempted to. The rest of the components are top notch though, it’s just the fan that’s disappointing.
Update (3rd Feb): New fan arrived. It’s sortof halved the noise but overall it’s still noisy. Shuttle sell a fanless PSU, which is 200W (current one is 250W), called the Shuttle PC62, however that costs £95. Annoyingly, I want a silent PC, so I guess sometime soon I’ll be getting one of those. *sigh*
