I can't say about POWER8, but my P720 sure does.

Subject: Firing up a Power 8... Does yours sound like a jet engine?

I just had to shut of my Power 8 (model 41A) for a storm passing through..
just in case.

Fired it back up and it reminded me how it sounds when it starts up. Like a slow crescendo to a very loud harmonic howl of some very fast fans...
then after a few minutes quiets down, with a slow decrescendo to a whisper (much quieter than my old 515).

Is that what these things should sound like when starting up? :) Probably a stupid question, but I have to ask.
