Questions about this item

How loud does the OptiPlex 3060 get when the i5-8500 runs all day?

The system uses standard desktop cooling for the i5-8500; fan noise stays at typical office levels during sustained workloads.

Which memory type must I already have if I want to add more RAM to the 16 GB DDR3 module?

The board takes DDR3 only, with one free slot supporting up to 32 GB total.

Will my older SATA hard drive work alongside the 500 GB SSD in this 3060?

Yes, the chassis has a SATA interface and room for an additional drive, so a legacy SATA HDD can be installed beside the SSD.
