I'm going to be the voice of dissonance and say that as long as you power down your lab when you're done getting that eBay Dell is fine. The idea behind the lab is to build experience and you're not going to get familiar with how a real bare metal server is setup by building a generic beige box. Server hardware and the consumer hardware people on here are recommending are radically different. You can also tuck your lab into the garage or basement if the noise is that obtrusive.
