I've noticed when adding a expansion card (NIC) into my DL380 G8 the fan speeds increase, I've installed the newest HP Service Pack with the latest drivers, tried a few different cards in different slots (1-3) but can't seem to get the fans down, without the cards fans 5/6 run about 27% and with the cards fans 5/6 run about 43%. I've also verfied the BIOS thermal settings are set to optionmized. I'm sure this is prob by design, but is there anything I can do to quiet down the server.
