I noticed the same things: huge box and case, huge weight and UNBEARABLE NOISE. I'm anxious to know if anyone of you running Linux on PE1900 have managed to detect the fan speeds and force them to stay down at as slow speed possible for proper cooling? I'm actually also propably going to switch all the fans simply because there is no place in this home office where anyone could stand that noise. To Jen: as you ordered fans from newegg - did you connect the 3pin connector with speed control to the 4pin hotplug connector or just plug it to the back of the dvd drive without speed control? I hope someone is still reading this thread :-) Hi, I’ve purchased a Poweredge 1900 as well because of the features vs. price.

My client has been complaining and I want to buy th fans ahead of time and swap out the loud fans all on the same visit. Thank you.

But I do not use any of the temperature readings. With fans that loud - I'm pretty confident it's cool in there... :P I do have linux on it. But I do not use any of the temperature readings.
