[3dem] Soundproof rack for K3 computer

[Nadav Elad]

Hi Terje
We have 2 soundproof racks from MS Noise, called BAI Series. One of the racks holds a K3 and a Falcon servers and the other one holds a K2 processor and server. We are happy with both. This company sell racks of different sizes and cooling capacities. I don't the details for the exact ones we bought, but can send you next week if you are interested.
Best

We are moving our Gatan K3 detector from the old F20 to our new Glacios and instead of buying the extra long cable between the camera and the computer, we are thinking of putting the computer in a soundproof enclosure in the microscope room (or the control room). 
 
Does anybody have experience with putting the K3 computer in a soundproof, enclosed rack? As you know, the computer generates a lot of heat, so the enclosure would presumably have to have some kind of cooling built in. 

Any advice would be welcome. 

Terje
