Recommend Sound Deadening For Inside Server Rack Panels

Thinking of lining the inside side panels of my 48u rack with some sort of sound deadening material. Was going to go with rock wool or the cheap self adhesive foam bricks you can buy off amazon. Was thinking of doing the same thing to the ceiling above where my rack sits and the walls behind as well. Mainly trying to cut down on the echo and high frequency whines. Anyone have any advice or suggestions? Maybe talk me out of it, or some other solution?

rockwool is going to bleed dust into your equipment. Go with accoustic foam panels, they are cheap even if you need to use some double sided tape.

It’s going to be a challenge to soundproof without blocking off a lot of airflow.
