If you sleep next to it and it is too noisy, chance are you don't need
it and can switch it off at night ;-)
I assume, with SSDs instead of HDs, it will be even more silent.

My ALIX is only noiseless and fanless because it uses a CF as storage.
With a full HD, I doubt I could run it fanless (and at 5W)...
