No! The sonnet has the noctua fan in it that runs at 15db spl, the quietest studio I’ve ever had was ambient 15db spl(super quiet) ALL of the Sonnet enclosures have the Noctua fan, or maybe only some of them have the Noctua fan, including the one you have? From what I've read, it doesn't seem like all of the Sonnet enclosures necessarily have a nice quiet Noctua fan, but I'd be happy to be wrong about that. |

edit; this fan is a ridiculous 6.8db spl |

edit; this fan is a ridiculous 6.8db spl Yeah, it looks like it wouldn't be expensive to replace the fan. That's probably what I would do if I end up not putting it in the machine room. |

Anybody have any idea how much latency gets added by going thru one of these enclosures versus having a PCIe card loaded directly into a slot in a computer? Surely it doesn't add that many samples of latency to go PCIe > enclosure > TB > Mac versus having a PCIe card directly loaded into a Mac (if you had an older Mac that could internally host PCIe cards).
In other words, how much latency does the PCIe to TB conversion process add?

Not gonna be a good answer
I haven't used mine in this configuration yet, just using the Lynx (n)TB right now. I used the lynx aes pcie's in my tower before and latency was never an issue, I can't imagine pcie speed would be a bottle neck even set up remotely in the sonnet, I believe the latency on the Lynx is less than 1.3ms with TB3
