So loud that we can't hear actually. People call it "silence".

24 dba is very quiet, I struggle to hear that low due to my tinnitus.

a lot of very quiet pc fans are around 24 dba and you can barely notice the sound of them.

A 24 dBA fan is slightly less loud than a whisper - if this is directly what you're inquiring about.

We can perceive pitch in whispered speech, although fundamental frequency (F0) does not exist physically or phonetically due to the lack of vocal-fold vibration.

Thus, whispers aren't as loud as most vocal noises.

That should give you an idea on what the sound can be perceived as.

Now, if you have a mechanical drive (HDD), you'd probably hear it - due to the moving parts.

It becomes A LOT more audible with a 24 dBA fan.

With an SSD, it's a different ball-game; since they're not mechanical drives.

Some SDD's tend to emit an audible sound when the system is under lower usage.

This is somewhat audible.

That's not loud.

Depends on whether she's a "screamer" or not... ;)

I guess we've reached to the point where google isn't a thing where you'd find answers but instead OT forum is the first option to find the answers
