After following some of the discussions on HTPCs and thinking about a future PC strategy in general, I have decided that going forward I want to use fanless PCs for everything, not just A/V applications.
I have 3 servers and 2 workstations that run 24/7 and I want to eliminate any noise from them. (I know that solid state drives are still too expensive so I'll have to live with HD noise for a while yet). Even though the servers are down in the basement computer room where noise is not so critical, I noticed the other day that they have drawn in a lot of dust and I would like to reduce the maintenance requirement by going fanless and therefore (hopefully) dustless.
I found this case that is fanless and was wondering if anybody has used it or something similiar? I would also like to hear from anyone who has purchased a complete fanless system. I would probably prefer to by a pre-built system with a warranty rather than building my own system into a fanless case.
