Actually my Unraid is not very noisy at all. I put in a quiet Zalman CPU heatsink/fan. I also have a quiet PS. The Antec P180 case has 3 120mm fans that can be switched to low. The drives spin down when not in use. I have 6 drives in my system and it's sitting in my bedroom about 3 feet from the bed and I can barely hear it at all.

It just doesn't seem like there is any getting around the notion that - for true hardware RAID - you need to have the disks reside in the same box as a RAID-capable controller card. Which implies a separate system, rather than just a storage appliance.
You can get true HW RAID without having to use an external controller. Here is an example. Just plug in a JBOD and you're all set.
Thanks, Kevin
