[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1824436, member: 175845"] It was my understanding that it was [I][B]very bad practice to run those Mac models without the side panel in place[/B][/I]. I believe doing so could mess up the cooling air flow and it could overheat. If the noises are annoying you, I could barely hear them in your audio, then put some pieces of sound absorbing board or material around the Mac Pro, but leave some air slots open for cooling. Or wear some good sealing earphones. :Smirk: - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
