These are all wildly dissimilar products to a 9001.

 - The 3750E/2811 are 1U, with tiny fans as a result
 - The 6500 is a gigantic lump of power consumption

For the avoidance of doubt, I have three 9001s, all of which are
installed without baffles, and in a variety of UK data centres.

The temperatures are all fine, there aren't any alarms (historical or
otherwise). Some data centres have their cold aisle setpoints lower than
others, and some racks are less useful than others (eg. quarter racks)
but all are fine.

Use the v2 tray to be on the safe side, but 2/3 of mine are all on v1
still and I don't worry. :)
