Nigel, I can't answer all your question, but I can answer your last question about noise.
I have a Ultrastudio 4K sitting on my desk for evaluation and I am astounded by the noisy fan inside.
Hot air blows out from the side, so it seems this unit needs adequate cooling.
Because of the noise alone, I am sending this unit back.
I can not imagine using this device in the same room as where I am sitting. I think that the Ultrastudio should be installed in remote places, prefereably a cooled rack.
It is not something to keep closeby.
