If you want silent then you really need to run a separate backend and have
the frontend diskless. You'll probably need watercooling to build a silent
frontend capable of HD though.

Personally I think completely silent is pointless. Just keep it as quiet as
possible: fanless video card, only one drive, quiet powersupply and CPU fan.
This is what I've done and the loudest component is the 500GB SATA drive
when it's in use. But I can't hear it over the TV so it's fine.

Cheers,
Steve
