If the "fiddling" is similar to what is necessary to run VMS on the white box alphas then have a look at

The white box alphas were tergeted at the WNT market. Adding two srm parameters works wonders for VMS. It does not involve hardware mods and AFAIK the mods are completely reversible.

Dave did the Alpha family come in a 1U size?
    Yes, the DS10L comes to mind.   My HECnet node AXPEE:: is one of those.
  They are EV6-based (nice and quick!) and are available clocked at
466MHz and 600MHz.

    There are other 1U models, but that's the one I'm most familiar with.

If so could said system be considered to be a quiet one?
    Eh, so-so.
