Calm, cool, not brown.

Replaced fans in a pair of server power supplies used in a home lab. A slight modification was required to get the 2 pin connector in the power supply to work. The difference in noise level is really big day and night compared to the standard LOUD server fans that these PSUs had and provides plenty of airflow. They have been running 24/7 with no problems for almost 2 years now. I believe the gray color is better than the standard tan/brown Noctua. While I like the standard Noctua colors, this is an easy way to spot quality fans.

Pros
