:D

Maybe vendors overpriced rack mount equipment decouple vibrations to 
avoid noise. The hammered crooked DIY rack mount case might become a 
PITA. For my computer case the only thing that sometimes make noise are 
the side panels because of small clearance to the rest of the case. 
Sometimes they are vibrating and bump against the rest of the case. 
Problems like this are solvable, but if possible, directly buying 
something that is fine, seems to be the better solution. I'm only using 
DIY stuff :D, sometimes it's fine, but sometimes ... ;).
