Very disappointed, I figured getting a high wattage unit for my NAS that claimed low noise would mean the fan could slow down due to never being heavily loaded. Sadly as seems to be the case for all FlexATX PSUs, it doesn't have a PWM fan so it sounds the same regardless of load and doesn't seem any quieter than the PSU my case came with.
Its not a bad PSU, I'd expect it to last a long time due to being more efficient with low-load compared to the stock PSU, but I had really hoped it would be quieter. Its such a shame the best NAS cases compromise on the PSU, as just moving up to SFX you can find PSUs that are almost completely silent.
Its rather bizarre as you can find external power bricks up to around 250W that are much quieter than this, so not sure why nobody has managed to make a FlexATX that is quiet. I can only guess its because typically FlexATX is for rack mounted hardware where noise level is not an issue.
