I bought an additional Epyc 7313 - open box item on eBay for $399. I actually just put it in the server today and it runs great.
The server only comes with one standard heatsink. I bought two of...

Dual Epyc? The listing states it come with just one. Did you buy an additional one from another seller? Does the server come with both heatsinks?

The NS204i-p actually came in the mail today so I added the card to the first riser PCIe slot and installed ESXi on it. I was going to use Proxmox, but wanted to get a bit of experience with the...

Run 380's in a Data Center and these are NOT quiet.
But overall, descent servers. Drives fail often, but these are older models.

I am still running my R710, R510 and R210ii from the stone age.

I haven’t yet. I was going to wait for all the other components to arrive. But I can power it up and record the noise if you’d like; I just don’t have the HPE NS204i-p Boot Device or any hard drives...

You're probably right, but I suppose it also just depends on your living situation. In my 20's I lived in an apartment in Orlando with a custom built 1U rackmount that was like having a jet engine in...

No, it comes with a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) backplane and controller, so only SAS drives will work out of the box. Although I believe you can purchase SATA backplanes for it.

Also, I am a noob for the rack-mounted servers: Can this take regular 3.5" SATA HDDs? It kinda sounds like it's 2.5 only from the spec unless I am misunderstanding something.

I ended up buying this, but it’s still being shipped. Depending on your configuration, HPE recommends you buy their performance fan kit - instead of the default fans provided. I looked up the fans...

Lot of capability per $... Anyone know how loud fans on this generation are? The 2U have always been quieter than 1U, but still sometimes pretty loud..
