Noise
16,500 rpm is extreme. A tiny fan in the unique SSD cooler by Adata can run at such a speed. We expected that it will be possible to regulate it and choose a reasonable setting, but there is no compromise in this design, and frankly, so many imperfections make it very difficult to see something positive about this product, which is a shame because the “core“ is pretty effective.
Noise
The noise may be higher than we measured, especially in cheaper cases that have thin panels. Higher speeds can make the whole configuration vibrate, creating additional noise. This was eliminated in our measurements because the cooler was mounted in a molten pad via the PCIe adapter.
