My customer wants to purchase a AS4020C-T Server, but he is concerning about the noise level of this server. Can you tell me what the noise decibel level of this server is?
That depends on the speed of the onboard Fans. To customize the Fan Speed Mode, please go to BIOS à Advanced Settings Menu à System Fan Monitor. Here are the information for the noise decibel level you will get on the different modes.
