Oops. Didn't notice the depth of that. Must have been made for audio gear or something.

One remaining problem is that rackmount gear usually isn't quiet -- though perhaps more modern gear has temperature-controlled fans.

Hmm. Good point. The PowerEdge I've got here goes from loud to jet engine taking off if it detects a fault like overheating or a PSU dying. You really don't want this anywhere near you. Chucking it into the garage would be okay but you have to make sure it's not going to be sucking dusty air in.
