In Reply to: GRAY AREA - Computers & Hard Disks in the listening room - Pictures posted by AbeCollins on August 26, 2016 at 12:16:37:
In my experience, the computer and hard drive noise issue is a non sequitur. I have never heard the internal fan of my iMac computer kick-in at any time, and my external hard drives are completely silent to my ear when positioned behind the iMac video display. I find my computer workstation system to be no more noisy than the traditional CD transport in my main audio system, which is essentially a dead quiet audio component from a mechanical POV. When a computer audio server and its associated hard drives are placed in another room, that type of remote configuration would seem to be that of a distributed audio system rather than the conventional notion of a digital source component placed as near as possible to a DAC, which is then placed as close as possible to the other components within an audio system in order to keep audio cabling as short as possible.
