7-volt mod the fans. Suspend the drives on elastic if possible.
yup, i spot blutacked the panels, have rubber washers on the drive cages connecting them to the case, and all fans are 5v'ed. only noise I hear is the tickover of the PSU at 7v and the occational drive access which considering they're samsungs is pretty quiet.
for more silencing the drives would have to be suspended, but as I use 4 drives in mine I need to build a system to do it.

Anywhere that the panels meet I have put blutack, just small dots on the sides and on the edging that the panels sit on. It creates a very tight fitting panel and stops vibrations. I'd also recommend sitting something heavy ontop of the case to stop the top panel vibrating.
